Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by abnormally increased sweating,[3] in excess of that required for regulation of body temperature.[4] Although primarily a physical burden, hyperhidrosis can deteriorate quality of life from a psychological, emotional, and social perspective.[5] It has been called by some 'the silent handicap'.[6]
It has the same meaning as going Dutch. Curiously, in South American countries exist the Spanish phrase pagar a la americana (literally To pay American style) which refers to a treat attributed to North Americans or Canadians.
Alternatively, some sources give the origin of Dutch in this case as a corruption or a folk-rendering of the Pennsylvania German endonym Deitsch. Speakers of the language today are primarily found in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and other Midwestern States of the United States and in Ontario in Canada.nstead it is probably left over from an archaic sense of the English word Dutch; compare German Deutsch ('German'), Dutch Duits ('German'), Diets ('Dutch'), which once referred to any people speaking a non-peripheral continental West Germanic language on the European mainland.
