释义

subulato-comb. form

Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly. Some degree of stress is always maintained on the third syllable. If the subsequent element is an existing word, it is likely to retain its original stress pattern, e.g. subulato-setiform Brit. /sjuːbjᵿˌleɪtəʊˈsiːtᵻfɔːm/, /sʌbjᵿˌleɪtəʊˈsiːtᵻfɔːm/, U.S. /ˌsəbjəˌleɪdoʊˈsidəˌfɔrm/.

Etymology: < scientific Latin subulato- (formations in which are found from the first half of the 18th cent., e.g. subulato-compressus (1736 or earlier), subulato-filiformis (1762 or earlier), both in Linnaeus), combining form of post-classical Latin subulatus subulate adj. (compare -o- connective).Found in a small number of adaptations of scientific Latin terms (exemplified below) from the second half of the 18th cent. With the various compounds in the quots., compare e.g. scientific Latin subulato-setosus (1764 or earlier), subulato-lanceolatus, subulato-setaceus (1766 or earlier), subulato-spinosus (1767 or earlier).
