lepra Arabica

Note that the previous claim that lepra = lepra Arabica is entirely mistaken. When the terms were used and distinguished, leprosy proper was lepra Graeca and lepra Arabica referred to what is now known as elephantitis. (The fact leprosy was previously known as elephantitis obviously doesn't help for clarity here.) — LlywelynII 14:35, 11 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
