† ˈancomen.

Forms: 1500s–1600s uncome, 1500s–1700s ancome, 1600s ancombe, 1700s andicomb.

Etymology: Of somewhat doubtful formation; expl. by Elyot, Baret, etc. as ‘adventitius morbus’; thus evidently viewed by them as a derivative of come n.¹ (compare income revenue). Hence probably a variant of northern English on-come (14th cent.) ‘visitation, access of disease,’ perhaps a partially translated adaptation of Norse ákoma, ‘arrival, visitation, eruption on the skin.’ On-come would also easily yield the 16th cent. variant uncome; the mod. Scots and north English in-come, used in a similar sense, shows a further refashioning of the prefix; compare amid, among, with their variants on mid, in mid, o mong, on mong, in mong. The later spellings ancombe, andicomb, show that the word was no longer understood.

Obs. or dial.

‘An ulcerous swelling rising unexpectedly’ (Wright); a boil; an imposthume; by some later authors applied to a whitlow.
