red peppern.

Brit.

/ˌrɛd ˈpɛpə/, U.S.

/ˌrɛd ˈpɛpər/

Forms: see red adj. and n. and pepper n.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: red adj., pepper n.

Etymology: < red adj. + pepper n., after post-classical Latin piper rubrum (1559 in the passage translated in quot. 1559).

Originally: a hot, pungent spice prepared from chilli peppers, the red, elongated, ripe fruits of the Capsicum annum Longum group (also figurative); the fruit itself. Now more usually: the red, mild-flavoured, bell-shaped, ripe fruit of the sweet pepper (the Capsicum annuum Grossum group). Cf. pepper n. 3.
