aetheogam
English
Alternative forms
- aëtheogam
Etymology
From Ancient Greek ????? (a?th?s, “unusual”) + ????? (gámos, “marriage”).
Pronunciation
- (Received Pronunciation) enPR: ?.??th??g?m, IPA(key): /e??i??????æm/,
Noun
aetheogam (plural aetheogams)
- (botany) A cryptogam; a plant of the obsolete taxonomic class Cryptogamia, having neither stamina nor pistils, and therefore no proper flowers, such as an alga, fern, fungus, lichen or moss.
Usage notes
- Being derived from the two vowels ?? (a?) (alpha-eta: a?), rather than the diphthong ?? (ai) (alpha-iota: ai), the initial ae- of aetheogam can only properly be written as two separate letters (ae), with a diaeresis atop the e (as aëtheogam) being optional; the spellings *ætheogam and *etheogam are, therefore, erroneous.
Synonyms
- cryptogam
Derived terms
- aetheogamous (botany)
