where did the saying goose bumps come from
Goose bumps The phrase "goose bumps" derives from the phenomenon's association with goose skin. Goose feathers grow from stores in the epidermis which resemble human hair follicles. When a goose's feathers are plucked, its skin has protrusions where the feathers were, and these bumps are what the human phenomenon resembles.
Chickenpox Why the term was used is not clear but it may be due to it being a relatively mild disease.[14] It has been said to be derived from chickpeas, based on resemblance of the vesicles to chickpeas,[14][71][72] or to come from the rash resembling chicken pecks.[72] Other suggestions include the designation chicken for a child (i.e., literally 'child pox'), a corruption of itching-pox,[71][73] or the idea that the disease may have originated in chickens.[74] Samuel Johnson explained the designation as "from its being of no very great danger".[75]
