?

i have a google alert set for the word EXIGE , have done for about a year. Its an strange word and doesnt get many hits, and when it does its always about the car ... so i get lots of EXIGE news.

Anyway, today i got a french political page ... got me thinking if EXIGE actually means anything in any language.

anyone know ?
