cancann.

Brit.

/ˈkankan/,

/ˈkaŋkã/, U.S.

/ˈkænˌkæn/

Etymology: French (16th cent. in Littré), noise, disturbance, ‘rumpus’, also the dance. Of uncertain etymology, the popular fancy being that it is the Latin quanquam, about the proper pronunciation of which a noisy wrangle is said to have occurred in the French schools. But Littré also points to an Old French caquehan tumultuous assembly; Scheler thinks it the verbal noun < cancaner, which he thinks was ‘to quack as a duck’.

A lively dance originating in 19th-century Parisian music halls, originally a form of quadrille, now usually performed on stage by women and typically involving high kicks executed while holding up the front of the skirts. Also in combinations, as cancan-dancing adj.
