单词 aetheogamous
释义

aetheogamous

See also: aëtheogamous

English

Alternative forms

  • aëtheogamous

Etymology

aetheogam + -ous[1]

Pronunciation

  • (Received Pronunciation) enPR: ā.ē'thēŏʹgəməs, IPA(key): /eɪˌiːθiːˈɒɡəməs/,[1]

Adjective

aetheogamous (not comparable)

  1. (botany)[1] Of the nature of an aetheogam.

Usage notes

  • Being ultimately derived from the two vowels ἀή (aḗ) (alpha-eta: ), rather than the diphthong αἰ (ai) (alpha-iota: ai), the initial ae- of aetheogamous can only properly be written as two separate letters (ae), with a diaeresis atop the e (as aëtheogamous) being optional; the spellings *ætheogamous and *etheogamous are, therefore, erroneous.

Synonyms

  • cryptogamous

References

  1. “aetheogamous, a.” listed in the Oxford English Dictionary [2nd Ed.; 1989]
