The word Flogger has a long and complex linguistic history that is pertinent to morphological and etymological analysis. The word first appears in Old English as the verb flogian, denoting the act of striking with a whip or similar object. In the 13th century, this verb is passed into Middle English usage, with the more specific meaning of beating someone with a stick or rod. This is also the origin of the noun flogger, which can be traced back to its 14th century usage as a device for flogging. Subsequently, the word has taken on different meanings in various contexts, ranging from a device used for flogging or punishment to a whip-like object with a handle. Morphologically, the word is composed of an initially voiceless labiodental fricative followed by a liquid, alveolar lateral phoneme and a velar approximant. Pragmatically, the word is used to denote a tool or implement used to flog someone or as a noun to refer to the person who administers the flogging.
