[ in-gAj, en- ] (verb.) 15th century. From Old (and modern) French engager (from the same base as English wage) from en- + Old French gage "pledge", of Germanic origin, from Frankish *waddi, wadja (cognate with Old English wedd), from Proto-Germanic *wadjo, *wadi- (“pledge”) from Proto-Indo-European *wadh- (“to pledge, redeem a pledge”). Akin to Old Norse veþja "to pledge", Gothic wadi. More at wed.
