释义

corneo-comb. form

Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly. Some degree of stress is always maintained on the first syllable. If the subsequent element is an existing word, it is likely to retain its original stress pattern, e.g. corneo-iritis n. Brit. /ˌkɔːnɪəʊʌɪˈrʌɪtᵻs/, U.S. /ˌkɔrnioʊaɪˈraɪdᵻs/.
1. Combining form of Latin corneus, corneous adj., meaning ‘with a horny admixture’, as in corneo-calˈcareous adj. corneo-siˈlicious adj.
2. Combining form of cornea n., as in corneo-iritis n. inflammation of the eye affecting both cornea and iris. corneo-scleˈrotic adj. pertaining to the cornea and sclerotic coat.
