   Celtic; cf. W. beichiog, beichiawg, pregnant, with child, fr.
   baich burden, Arm. beac'h; or cf. OE. bygly, Icel. biggiligr,
   (properly) habitable; (then) magnigicent, excellent, fr. OE.
   biggen, Icel. byggja, to dwell, build, akin to E. be.]

      great size; large. ``He's too big to go in there.''

      or produce; -- often figuratively.
