A variant or alternative form referring to the condition of insensibility to pain; essentially synonymous with analgesia.
A variant spelling of analgesia, using the Greek root algesis (pain sensation) more directly rather than the -ia ending. This form is rarely used in modern English.
This is a ghost word—a term that exists in older texts but has been superseded by 'analgesia.' Lexicographers sometimes argue about whether to include variants that have fallen out of use.
