Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: Latin olea , -aceous suffix.

Etymology: < classical Latin olea olive tree (see oleaginous adj.) + -aceous suffix, after scientific Latin Oleaceae, family name (J. Lindley Nat. Syst. Bot. (ed. 2, 1836) 307; earlier Oleineae (J. C. Hoffmannsegg & H. F. Link Flore Portugaise (1809) I. 385/1). Compare French Oléacées (1843).
