abscissn.

Brit.

/ˈabsɪs/, U.S.

/ˈæbsəs/

Forms:

α. 1600s– absciss.

β. 1600s–1700s abscisse.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Probably also partly a borrowing from French. Etymons: Latin abscissa; French abscisse.

Etymology: In α. forms < post-classical Latin abscissa abscissa n., with omission of the ending. In β. forms probably < French abscisse (1693) < post-classical Latin abscissa abscissa n. Compare slightly later abscissa n. 1.

Mathematics. Now rare.

abscissv.

Brit.

/abˈsɪs/, U.S.

/æbˈsɪs/

Forms: 1600s 1800s– absciss, 1900s– abscisse (rare).

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Perhaps also partly formed within English, by back-formation. Etymons: Latin absciss- , abscindere ; abscission n.

Etymology: Originally < classical Latin absciss-, past participial stem of abscindere abscind v. In later use perhaps independently as a back-formation < abscission n. Compare earlier abscise v.

1. transitive. Surgery. To cut off or away; = abscise v. 1. Cf. abscission n. 1. rare.
