=English=

==Etymology==
Coined by [[John Milton]] in ''[[Paradise Lost]]'' as ''Pandæmonium'', from Greek ''πᾶν'' (“all”) + Latin ''daemonium'' (“evil spirit, demon”), from Greek ''δαιμόνιον'' (“deity”).

==Pronunciation==
* RP: /ˌpændɪˈməʊnɪəm/
* General American: /ˌpændəˈmoʊni.əm/
* Rhymes with: -oʊniəm

==Noun==
'''pandemonium''' (plural: ''pandemonia'')

# A loud, wild, tumultuous protest, disorder, or chaotic situation, usually involving a crowd and often violent.
#: Synonyms: [[chaos]], [[bedlam]]
#: ''“Whatever all this pandemonium means, I suppose the police station will help us.”'' — G. K. Chesterton
#: ''“Whenever you have violent pandemonium, there's the overwhelming possibility for panic and tragedy.”'' — The Boston Globe, October 22, 2004

# An outburst; loud, riotous uproar, especially of a crowd.
#: Synonyms: [[outburst]], [[uproar]]
