noun, masculine/ɛ̃.sɑ̃.di/plural: incendies
fire (something on fire which is out of control)
Related: borne d'incendie, bouche à incendie, bouche d'incendie, incendiaire, incendier
Ca. 1600, borrowed from Latin incendium. Perhaps influenced by Occitan incendi (in the 16th c. also encende), from Old Occitan encendi (11th c.), which may be inherited or is at least a much earlier borrowing.
