Gargoyle in English

gargoyle
\gar"goyle\ (?), n. [oe. garguilie, gargouille, cf. sp. g?rgola, prob. fr. the same source as f. gorge throat, influenced by l. gargarizare to gargle. see gorge and cf. gargle, gargarize.] (arch.) a spout projecting from the roof gutter of a building, often carved grotesquely. [written also gargle, gargyle, and gurgoyle.]

Dictionary source: hEnglish - advanced version
More: English to English translation of gargoyle

In architecture, a gargoyle is a carved stone grotesque, usually made of granite, with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building thereby preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls and eroding the mortar between. Architects often used multiple gargoyles on buildings to divide the flow of rainwater off the roof to minimize the potential damage from a rainstorm. A trough is cut in the back of the gargoyle and rainwater typically exits through the open mouth. Gargoyles are usually an elongated fantastic animal because the length of the gargoyle determines how far water is thrown from the wall. When Gothic flying buttresses were used, aqueducts were sometimes cut into the buttress to divert water over the aisle walls.

Gargoyle, (n.)

A rain-spout projecting from the eaves of mediaeval buildings, commonly fashioned into a grotesque caricature of some personal enemy of the architect or owner of the building. This was especially the case in churches and ecclesiastical structures generally, in which the gargoyles presented a perfect rogues' gallery of local heretics and controversialists. Sometimes when a new dean and chapter were installed the old gargoyles were removed and others substituted having a closer relation to the private animosities of the new incumbents.
