Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Partly a borrowing from Greek. Etymons: Latin rhodo-; Greek ῥοδο-.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin and scientific Latin rhodo- and its etymon ancient Greek ῥοδο-, combining form (in e.g. ῥοδοδάκτυλος rosy-fingered) of ῥόδον rose, probably a borrowing < the Iranian word represented by Persian gul and Armenian vard ; compare -o- connective.This element is found early in borrowings from Latin, e.g. rhodomel n., rhododaphne n., rhododendron n. An isolated 17th-cent. formation within English is shown by rhodostaurotic adj. Compare German rhodo- (formations in which are found from the early 19th cent., in e.g. Rhodonit rhodonite n., Rhodochrosit rhodochrosite n.). From the early 19th cent. both borrowings and adaptations of German words and formations within English are found with some frequency.

rhodochrome n.

[after German Rhodochrom ( K. G. Fiedler Reise durch Griechenland (1841) II. 247)] Mineralogy (now historical) a red, chromium-containing mineral now regarded as identical with kämmererite; cf. rhodophyllite n.

rhodolite n.

1898 W. E. Hidden & J. H. Pratt in Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 155 296 The analysis proves that this garnet is not almandine nor wholly pyrope and is distinctive enough in color alone to merit a varietal name. We, therefore, propose the name of Rhodolite, from the two Greek words ῥόδον, a rose, λίθος, a stone.

1931 Amer. Mineralogist 16 563 Excellent samples of rock which contain much gedrite are still to be found on the dump which, however, has been so carefully picked over for rhodolite that good samples are scarce.

1977 V. Gissing tr. Kouřimský's Illustr. Encycl. Minerals & Rocks 237 The light rose-red to faintly violet mixtures of pyrope and almandine are called rhodolites and they occur in California.
