Gee \Gee\, v. i. [imp. & p. p. Geed; p. pr. & vb. n. Geeing.]

1.To agree; to harmonize. [Colloq. or Prov. Eng.] --Forby. [1913 Webster]

2.[Cf. G. j["u], interj., used in calling to a horse, It. 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; used most frequently in the imperative, often with off, by drivers of oxen, in directing their teams, and opposed to haw, or hoi.
