Etimoloxía (Inglés)
In summary
Borrowed from Latin algidus (“very cold”), used in medical and poetic senses to describe coldness and stiffness. The figurative sense is perhaps derived from the frequently fatal algid stage of a fever (characterized by coldness as a result of shock). See also Italian algente (“cold”) and English algor.
