Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: super- prefix, linear adj.

Etymology: < super- prefix + linear adj.

1793 T. Taylor in tr. Plato Cratylus, Phædo, Parmenides & Timæus Introd. 271 This point, though it is allotted a superlinear condition and is indivisible, yet it subsists in the line, is something belonging to it, and is the summit of the line.

2. Mathematics. Involving a power greater than one; of an order greater than one. Cf. linear adj. 3a.
