denguen.

/ˈdɛŋɡeɪ/

Forms: Also dengue-fever, denga.

Etymology: Immediately, < West Indian Spanish dengue; ultimately, according to Dr. Christie, in Glasgow Med. Jrnl. Sept. 1881, a Swahili word, the full name of the disease in Zanzibar being ka dinga pepo (ka partitive article, ‘a, a kind of’, dinga, dyenga, denga, ‘sudden cramp-like seizure’, pepo ‘evil spirit, plague’). On its introduction to the West Indies from Africa in 1827, the name was, in Cuba, popularly identified with the Spanish word dengue ‘fastidiousness, prudery’. In this form it was subsequently adopted in the United States, and eventually in general English use. In the British West Indies, called by the Black population dandy . Both names appear to be popular adaptations, of the ‘sparrow-grass’ type, of the Swahili name, with a mocking reference to the stiffness of the neck and shoulders, and dread of motion, exhibited by the patients; whence also another name of ridicule, the ‘Giraffe’.— See dandy n.²

An infectious eruptive fever, commencing suddenly, and characterized by excruciating pains, especially in the joints, with great prostration and debility, but seldom proving fatal; it is epidemic and sporadic in East Africa and the countries surrounding the Indian Ocean, and (since 1827) in the West Indies and adjacent parts of America. Also called dandy, and break-bone fever. The name has apparently been sometimes given in error to other epidemic fevers.
