Meanings

1. In a gothic way.
   • We sit at a cafe in the crisp morning air, looking down the gradually descending town square towards the gothically vertiginous fifteenth-century St Egidius church. The platz is ringed by steeply gabled pastel burghers' houses and in the centre sits the medieval town hall. 2003 November 2, Tom Templeton, “Worth more than 15 minutes”, in The Guardian, →ISSN, archived from the original on 09 Mar 2021:
