English

Etymology

Possibly borrowed from German Pandeismus, from pan- (from Ancient Greek ???- (pan-, prefix meaning ‘all’)) + Deismus (“deism”) (from Latin deus (“deity, god”) + German -ismus (“-ism”)). (Similar words appear earlier in various languages, but apparently not in the same sense.) The word can be analysed as pan- +? deism or as a blend of pantheism +? deism.

Pronunciation

• (Received Pronunciation) IPA^(key): /pæn?di??z(?)m/, /-de?-/
