tous-les-moisn.

/tuːleɪˈmwɑː/

Etymology: French, = ‘all the months, every month’; but probably a popular perversion of toloman, according to Duss and Jumelle the name in the French Antilles, probably < a South American Indian language.

The name in St. Kitts, etc., of species of Canna, esp. C. edulis, and of the starch obtained from its root-stocks, also called tous-les-mois starch. Canna coccinea was introduced into the West Indies from South America in 1731; C. edulis from Peru in 1820 (A. W. Hill, Kew). Samples of the farina were sent to England from St. Kitts in 1835–6: see Ryan's Med. & Surg. Jrnl. Aug. 1836, and Morning Chron. 4 Aug. 1837.
