Informal term a girl or woman.
Etymology: a) In the late 18 th century, a saucy name for an Irish woman, a modification of the Celtic caile, meaning girl. First recorded in English in 1795. b) In the US in the 1920s, an attractive young woman who was spunky, personable, and held independent views on politics and sex. 'What a gal!' was complimentary, implying that the woman referred to had both beauty and brains.
