tadpolen.¹

Brit.

/ˈtadpəʊl/, U.S.

/ˈtædˌpoʊl/

Forms: Also Middle English taddepol, tadpolle, 1500s tadpal, 1600s tod-pole, toad-pole, toad-poll.

Etymology: < Middle English tāde, tadde, toad n. + (apparently) poll n.¹, head, roundhead. The latter element has been questioned, on the ground of the apparent inappropriateness of the name ‘toad-head’; but compare the dialectal synonym pollhead or polehead (in Scots and northern English powheid), apparently = head-head.

a. The larva of a frog, toad, or other batrachian, from the time it leaves the egg until it loses its gills and tail. Chiefly applied in the early stage when the animal appears to consist simply of a round head with a tail.
