gi[`o], F. dia, used to turn a horse to the left.] To turn
to the off side, or from the driver (i.e., in the United
States, to the right side); -- said of cattle, or a team;

drivers of oxen, in directing their teams, and opposed to
haw, or hoi. [Written also jee.]
Note: In England, the teamster walks on the right-hand side
of the cattle; in the United States, on the left-hand
