pyritohedronn.

Brit.

/pᵻˌrʌɪtəʊˈhiːdrən/, U.S.

/pəˌraɪdoʊˈhidr(ə)n/; see also pyrito- comb. form.

Inflections: Plural pyritohedra, pyritohedrons.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: pyrito- comb. form, -hedron comb. form.

Etymology: < pyrito- comb. form + -hedron comb. form. N.E.D. (1909) also gives the pronunciation (-he·drǫ̆n) /-ˈhɛdrən/ for the latter element of this word.

Crystallography.

A twelve-sided polyhedron with pentagonal faces, which is particularly common in crystals of pyrite.
