What does brigued mean?
"Brigued" is not a recognized word in English. It does not appear in major dictionaries, and no established meaning, pronunciation, grammatical function, or history can be verified for it. Because accuracy is essential in lexicography, no definition has been supplied here rather than inventing one. If you encountered this spelling somewhere, it may be a typographical error, an extremely obscure regionalism not captured by reference works, a proper noun, or a coined term from fiction or a specific community. Words it might plausibly have been confused with include "brigand," "brigue" (an obsolete verb meaning to intrigue or scheme, attested historically but now archaic), or "beguiled." Readers seeking the obsolete sense of "brigue" — to engage in intrigue or underhanded plotting — should consult historical dictionaries such as the OED for its documented early modern usage before treating any form as current English.
Definition pending review.
