What’s a bit funny is that the name of the Angles (the people) and angle (the shape) are directly related. Both come from an old word meaning “hook”, the Angles being a fishing people originally and an angle being the shape of a hook.
This is EXCELLENT news for the German dub of Monty Python’s Holy Grail where Arthur claims to have taught fishing (German “Angeln”) to the Saxons (“Sachsen”), making them Anglo-Saxons (“Angelsachsen”).
Angles?
Like all 360 of 'em?
