- (General American) IPA(key): /?p?pi/
- Rhymes: -?pi
- Hyphenation: pop?py
Etymology 1
The noun is derived from Late Middle English poppy, Middle English popy, popi, popie (“plant of the genus Papaver; poppy seeds used as a spice”) [and other forms], from Old English popi? (“poppy”), Early Old English pope?, popae?, popæ?, popei [and other forms], perhaps from Late Latin *papavum, popauer, from Latin pap?ver (“poppy”), possibly from a reduplication of Proto-Indo-European *péh?wr? (“bonfire”).
Sense 3 (“artificial poppy flower to remember those who died in the two World Wars and other armed conflicts”) reflects the efforts of American professor and humanitarian Moina Michael (1869–1944) to popularize the wearing of artificial poppies in remembrance of those who fought and died in World War I; she was inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields” (1915) by the Canadian poet and soldier John McCrae (1872–1918): see the quotation.
The adjective is derived from the noun.
