释义

phyto-comb. form

Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly.
Forms: Before a vowel also phyt-
Origin: A borrowing from Greek. Etymons: Greek ϕυτο-, ϕυτόν.
Etymology: < ancient Greek ϕυτο-, combining form (in e.g. ϕυτοσπόρος planting, begetting) of ϕυτόν plant, literally ‘that which has grown’ < ϕύειν to produce, (passive and intransitive) to grow (see physis n.) + -τόν, neuter of -τός, suffix forming verbal adjectives. Compare post-classical Latin phyto-, French phyto-, German phyto-.English formations are found from the mid 17th cent. (e.g. phytognomy n., phytivorous adj.; compare also phytology n., modelled on Latin), and they become common in the mid 19th cent. (e.g. phytotomy n., phytogeography n.). Formations in French follow a similar timescale to those in English (compare phytologie phytology n. in the 17th cent.). N.E.D. (1906) gives the pronunciations (fəi·to, fi·to) /ˈfaɪtəʊ/, /ˈfɪtəʊ/ and adds the following note: ‘as the υ in Greek ϕυτόν is a short vowel, the correct etymological pronunciation of phyt- in all the following words is (fit); but the general tendency in English to view y as a long ī, as in my, cry, etc., has made the pronunciation (fəit) all but universal: it is adopted in all the pronouncing dictionaries from Walker onward’.
Forming nouns and adjectives, and derived adverbs, with the sense ‘of, relating to, or resembling (that of) a plant or plants’.
