Brit. /s(ə)nt ˈantəni/, U.S. /ˌseɪn(t) ˈænθəni/, /s(ə)n(t) ˈænθəni/, /ˌseɪn(t) ˈæntəni/, /s(ə)n(t) ˈæntəni/
Forms: see saint adj. and n. and Anthony n.
Origin: From a proper name. Etymon: proper name Anthony.
Etymology: < the name of St Anthony the Great (see Anthony n.). Compare Anthony n. and later tantony n.With St Anthony's fire at sense 1, compare post-classical Latin ignis Sancti Antonii (1363 in the passage translated in quot. ?a1425 at sense 1; from c1500 in British sources), Middle French, French feu saint-Antoine (1346), Old Occitan foc sant Antoni , and also early modern German sanct Antonie fewr , sanct Antoniusfewr (early 16th cent.). For the semantic motivation see discussion in the etymological note at Anthony n.
1. In the genitive, with of, and attributive, esp. in St Anthony's fire. Denoting any of various diseases or conditions of the skin or underlying soft tissues characterized by heat and redness, and often by rapid spread (cf. fire n. 14), spec. erysipelas or (in early use also) gangrene; (also) designating a case or individual lesion of such disease. Now historical.Now often identified as epidemic gangrenous ergotism, which is believed to have occurred in France and other parts of continental Europe at irregular intervals until the 19th cent., but there is little convincing contemporary evidence for use of the English name for this disease.For the semantic motivation of this sense see note in etymology at Anthony n., and cf. sense 2 at that entry.
