metapodiumn.

Brit.

/ˌmɛtəˈpəʊdɪəm/, U.S.

/ˌmɛdəˈpoʊdiəm/

Inflections: Plural metapodia.

Forms:

α. 1800s– metapodium.

β. 1800s– metapode Brit. /ˈmɛtəpəʊd/, U.S. /ˈmɛdəˌpoʊd/.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: meta- prefix, -podium comb. form.

Etymology: < meta- prefix + -podium comb. form, after post-classical Latin metapedium (17th cent. or earlier), with substitution of ancient Greek ποδ- , πούς (see -pod comb. form) for classical Latin ped- , pēs (see -ped comb. form).R. G. Mayne Expos. Lexicon Med. Sci. (1857) gives a Latin form metapidium.

1. Anatomy and Zoology. Originally: the metatarsus. Later also: the metatarsus or metacarpus (cf. metapodial adj. and n.); (occasionally) a metapodial bone.
