Hi Matthew,
Thank you for introducing to your readers this fine word that is becoming increasingly obscure.
As far as I know, the word is usually used in the capitalized form and spelt as “Gadarene” rather than “gadarine”.
Here is my entry:
SoundEagle must be somewhat Gadarene-minded in spending so much time and thought on having a highly fluid view, methodological openness and interdisciplinary diversity where both [quotation] and [misquotation] are concerned in the post entitled “The Quotation Fallacy “💬”” at http://soundeagle.wordpress.com/2017/10/18/the-quotation-fallacy/
Hah! Actually I mis-spelt it – I worked off a hand-written note, and my hand-writing is terrible. Should be ‘gaderine’, possibly with a capital given the origin of the word in the name of a town. Gadarine is an Armenian girls’ name (not yet appropriated by the English language, though I expect that is only a matter of time, the English language doesn’t just steal words from other languages, it chases after them down dark alleys and riffles their pockets for more…)
This week’s obscure English word is gadarine.

“gaderene”? As in Swine?

Yes, Zeno, and the word is usually capitalized as “Gadarene”, as far as I know.

There was a gadarine stampede for the all-you-can-eat buffet. (Using your spelling).
