metallurgyn.

Brit.

/mᵻˈtalədʒi/,

/ˈmɛtlˌəːdʒi/, U.S.

/ˈmɛdlˌərdʒi/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin metallurgia.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin metallurgia (1593, in alchemical use) < Byzantine Greek μεταλλουργία mining (in Eustathius) < ancient Greek μέταλλον metal n. + -ουργία -urgy comb. form, after Hellenistic Greek μεταλλουργός miner. Compare French métallurgie (1666; earlier in sense ‘research into minerals in the earth’ (Cotgrave, 1611)).Johnson (1755) and Richardson (a1832) indicate a pronunciation with the stress on the second syllable, while various editions of Walker, starting from 1775, mark stress on the first syllable. Webster (1828) shows the stress as being on the first syllable, and this appears always to have been the dominant pronunciation in U.S. usage; the same stress is given by Ogilvie (1850), and N.E.D. (1906) gives the pronunciation as (me·tălɒ̄ɹdʒi) /ˈmɛtəlɜːdʒɪ/. Both stress-patterns are well represented in British dictionaries from the second half of the 19th cent. onwards, although many late 20th-cent. British sources agree in marking the pronunciation with stress on the second syllable as the more common. Documentation for the stress pattern of metallurgist is similar.

The art of working metals, comprising the separation of them from other substances, smelting, and refining; spec. the process of extracting metals from their ores. In later use also: the scientific study of the structure, properties, and behaviour of metals.
