Dem = जनता, जैसे democracy में, और agogue = ले जाने वाला; demagogue जनता को ले जाता है, पर भावनाओं के सहारे। जोशीले भाषण से भीड़ को इतना भड़काता है कि वे सोचना छोड़ दें। नेताजी के भाषण से जनता का दिमाग़ चल गया — demagogue।
Dem means people, as in democracy, and agogue means one who leads, so a demagogue leads the people, but by their emotions. With a fiery speech he stirs the crowd until they stop thinking. 'Netaji ke bhashan se janta ka dimag chal gaya' (the leader's speech set the crowd's mind racing) — demagogue.
