Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin gonorrhoea.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin gonorrhoea, gonorroea (in men) spermatorrhoea, (in women) leukorrhoea (4th cent.) < Hellenistic Greek γονόρροια (in men) spermatorrhoea, (in women) leukorrhoea < ancient Greek γόνος semen (see gono- comb. form) + -ρροία -rrhoea comb. form. Compare Middle French gonorrhee (mid 16th cent.; French gonorrhée), Italian gonorrea (14th cent.).With the α. forms compare post-classical Latin gomorrea (from 13th cent. in British sources), Middle French gormorree (late 15th cent.), Italian gomorrea (14th cent.). Compare also the following folk-etymological explanation of the word:1547 A. Borde Breuiary of Helthe i. f. lxx^v Y^e barbarous word is named Gomorrea passio, it is named so because Gomer & Sodome, dyd synke for such lyke matter but this matter is nat voluntary, and they dyd it voluntaryly. Compare earlier occurrence of the post-classical Latin word (in quot. identified as Greek) in sense ‘spermatorrhoea’ in an English context:OE tr. Pseudo-Apuleius Herbarium (Vitell.) (1984) clviii. 202 Hyt fremað þam þe his gecyndelice sæd him sylfwylles fram gewiteþ, þone leahtor Grecas gonorhoeam nemneþ.

Also: an instance or case of such disease.In quot. 1598 figurative.
