Definition migraine
Etymology
1777 re-spelling (following French) of late 14th century Middle English megrim, from 13th century Old French migraigne, from Vulgar Latin pronunciation of Latin hemicrania (“pain in one half of the head”), from Ancient Greek ????????? (h?mikranía), from ???- (h?mi-, “hemi-, half”) + ??????? (kraníon, “skull”) (whence also cranium), a calque of Egyptian gs-tp (“headache”), from gs (“half”) + tp (“head”), although the link between the Egyptian magical papyri and the Greek ????????? (h?mikranía) could be purely incidental.
Cognate to megrim, hemicrania.
