The word 'gaslight' means to manipulate or make someone doubt their own sanity or perception of things by denying or altering reality. It comes from the old method of lighting homes using gas lanterns, which could flicker or dim, leading people to question if what they were seeing was real or if they were imagining it. You might use this word when talking about a situation where someone is being deceived or made to feel crazy by someone else's actions or words.
