Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymons: Latin ageustia, agheustia.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin ageustia (1688 or earlier; in scientific Latin also agheustia, 1759 or earlier) < ancient Greek ἄγευστος not tasting ( < ἀ- a- prefix⁶ + γευστός < γεύεσθαι to taste (see oxygeusia n. at oxy- comb. form¹ 1) + -τός , suffix forming verbal adjectives) + classical Latin -ia -ia suffix¹. Compare Greek ἀγευστία , apparently only attested in scholia (medieval Greek or earlier) on Aristophanes Clouds 621, in sense ‘fasting’. Compare slightly later ageusia n.
