pressionn.

Brit.

/ˈprɛʃn/, U.S.

/ˈprɛʃ(ə)n/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymons: Latin pressiōn-, pressiō.

Etymology: < classical Latin pressiōn-, pressiō pressure < press- , past participial stem of premere to press (see press v.¹) + -iō -ion suffix¹. In sense 2 probably after French pression (1638 in Descartes; 1256 in Old French in sense ‘stomach cramp’ in an apparently isolated attestation). Compare Catalan pressió spiritual or moral impetus (first half of the 15th cent.), physical pressure (1617), Spanish presión moral pressure, constraint (1307), Italian pressione (1611).

Now rare.

1. The action of pressing; pressure; an instance of this.In quot. c1540: tight pressures, constraining hardships.
