Bight, английский
- The part of the rope or line, between the end and the standing part, on which a knot is formed. bilge
- A loop in a line.
- A substantive made from the preterperfect tense of bend. the space lying between two promontories or headlands, being wider and smaller than a gulf, but larger than a bay. it is also used generally for any coast-bend or indentation, and is mostly held as a synonym of shallow bay.
- The loop of a rope when it is folded, in contradistinction to the end; as, her anchor hooked the bight of our cable, i.e. caught any part of it between the ends. the bight of his cable has swept our anchor, i.e. the bight of the cable of another ship as she ranged about has entangled itself about the flukes of our anchor. any part of the chord or curvature of a rope between the ends may be called a bight.
- [1] any part of a line between its two ends. [2] a bend or loop in a line. [3] a bend or curve in the shoreline. [4] the body of water enclosed by such a bend. [5] a bay or gulf.
- Traditionally a loop in a rope. with closed veins, such as with an english bridle, bight refers to the ends of the reins. even though western reins are often split, their ends are also referred to as the bight.
