or separation of the parts of a joint; the unjoint- 
ing of a limb ; luxation. When dislocation takes 
place as the result of violence, it is called primitive or ac- 
cidental ; and when it happens as a consequence of dis- 
ease, which has destroyed the tissues forming the joint, it 
is called consecutive or spontaneous. A simple dislocation 
is a dislocation unattended by a wound communicating 
internally with the joint and externally with the air ; aim 
a compound dislocation is a dislocation which is attended 
by such a wound.

dismal (diz'mal), a. and n. [Early mod. E. also 
dismall, diesmall, dismold, dysmel, dysemol; < 
ME. dismal, dismall, dismale, discmal, dysmall, 
found first as a noun in the phrase " in the dis- 
mal" (see quot. under II., 1), of which the orig. 
meaning is not certain, but which prob. stands 
for "in the dismal days or time," the word be- 
ing most frequent in the phrase dismal day or 
dismal days (see quots. under I.). The origin 
and meaning of the word have been much de- 
bated. It was certainly borrowed, and prob. 
from the OF. From its lack of a recognized 
literal meaning in E., it must have been bor- 
rowed in a figurative sense. " It is just possible 
that the original sense of in the dismal [days or 
time] was in tithing time; with reference to the 
cruel extortion practiced by feudal lords, who 
exacted tenths from their vassals even more 
peremptorily than tithes were demanded for the 
church." (Skeat.) This view, which is prob. cor- 
rect, is based upon what appears to be phoneti- 
cally the only possible origin of ME. dismal, 
namely, < OF. 'dismal, F. "dtmal (vernacular 
form of decimal, F. decimal) = Sp. diezmal = Pg. 
disimal, Sp. Pg. also decimal = E. decimal, < 
ML. decimalis, of a tenth, of tithes, < L. drcinm.i, 
tenth, ML. fern, decima, a tenth, a tithe, > OF. 
disnte, F. dime, ME. disnie, E. dime, a tithe, 
tenth: see decimal and dime. The notion of 
official extortion appears further in the related 
OF. dismcr, diesmer, decimate, exact tithes, 
hence despoil (= Sp. diezmar = Pg. dizimar, pay 
tithes, decimate: see decimate), and in esclixit, 
cheaft,q.\.] I. a. Gloomy; dreary; cheerless; 
melancholy ; doleful ; dolorous : originally, as 
an adjective, in the phrase dismal day or dismal 
days (see etymology), whence it was extended 
to any visible physical surroundings, or any- 
thing perceived or apprehended, tending to de- 
press or chill the spirits.
