Inflections: Singular rhagade;
Forms:

(In plural form) Old English ragadas, early Middle English radagas (transmission error), late Middle English racadias, late Middle English ragadias, late Middle English ragadiez, late Middle English ragadijs, late Middle English ragadyes, late Middle English ragedyes, 1500s–1700s rhagadies, 1600s– rhagades.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymons: Latin rhagades; Latin rhagadia.
Etymology: Partly < classical Latin rhagades fissures, cracks < ancient Greek ῥαγάδες , plural of ῥαγάς fissure (of soil), in Hellenistic Greek also crack or chap (of the skin) < ῥαγ- , aorist stem of ῥηγνύναι to break, burst (see -rrhagia comb. form) + -άς -ad suffix1; and partly < classical Latin rhagadia (also ragadia) (neuter plural; compare also post-classical Latin rhagadiae, ragadiae, feminine plural (a636 in Isidore; a1250 in a British source)), in same sense < the plural of an unattested Greek form *ῥαγάδιον < ancient Greek ῥαγαδ-, ῥαγάς + -ιον, diminutive suffix. Compare Middle French ragadies, plural (15th cent.), French rhagade, singular (1611 in Cotgrave).The classical Latin author Celsus implies that rhagadia is of Greek origin, but the word is apparently not attested in Greek authors.
