Forms: 1600s metaleptick, 1800s– metaleptic.

Origin: A borrowing from Greek. Etymon: Greek μεταληπτικός.

Etymology: < Hellenistic Greek μεταληπτικός capable of partaking, involving the rhetorical figure of metalepsis < -μετα- meta- prefix + -ληπτικός -leptic comb. form, after μεταλαμβάνειν to substitute (see metalepsis n.). With sense 2, compare Hellenistic Greek μεταληπτικῶς (adverb; also in post-classical Latin (c350) as a Greek word). In sense 3 after metalepsy n. (compare -leptic comb. form). Compare slightly earlier metaleptically adv.In quots. 1656 at sense 1, 1656 at sense 2 Blount gives post-classical Latin metalepticus as the etymon, although the word apparently occurs in Latin writers only as an unnaturalized Greek word.

†1. Participating or acting in cooperation: spec. designating muscles or their movements. Obsolete. rare.
