Not feeling all that great. May also mean person, place, thing not looking all that great. The first known use of the term in mainstream was from I Love Lucy in 1952 where she goes to the doc and finds out she's pregnant. The character mentioned her grandma "making the word up". It's uncertain if it's the character grandma or actress's real life grandma who made it up, or claimed to. Alternative spelling dauncey.
Good heavens, I'm feeling rather dauncey. I hope I've not caught cv19!

The fizzy feeling you get inside of you that makes you wanna dance, dance, dance (:
1. When I won the bet, knowing I had just gained 50 bucks made me feel ever so dancey.

2. When you're at a rave, you can't avoid the feeling of danciness inside of your tummy.

3. You're so adorable, you make me feel dancey.
