hog gumn.

Brit.

/ˈhɒɡ ɡʌm/, U.S.

/ˈhɔɡ ˌɡəm/,

/ˈhɑɡ ˌɡəm/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: hog n.¹, gum n.²

Etymology: < hog n.¹ + gum n.²The name may have originated from the supposition that pigs rubbed themselves against the tree's gum in order to heal wounds; compare quot. 1756 at sense 2, and the following: 1858 R. Hogg Veg. Kingdom 254 Hedwigia balsamifera is found in the woods and mountains of St. Domingo, and there called Bois de cochon or Wild Boar's Tree, because, it is said, these animals, when wounded, strip off the bark and heal their wounds by rubbing against the gum which exudes from it, and hence it may be regarded as another source of the Hog Gum.

1. A kind of insoluble gum or resin obtained from any of various tropical trees (see sense 2), and formerly used medicinally.
