The word "glean" originates from the agricultural practice of collecting remaining crops left in a field after the main harvest. In this context, "gleaning" referred to the act of picking up scattered grains or ears of corn. Over time, the meaning broadened to include the gathering of other things as well, such as information, insights, or opportunities, while retaining the connotation of effort and piecemeal acquisition.
