peri-, prefix
repr. Gr. περί prep. and adv., ‘round, around, round about, about’, combined in these senses with verbs and their derivatives, substantives and adjectives; (a) in adverbial construction, as περιβλέπειν to look around, περιστρέϕειν to turn round, περίοδος a going round, περίπατος walking about, περίχρῡσος gilded all over; from the sense ‘all over’, it was an easy extension to those of ‘altogether, quite, very, exceedingly, beyond measure’, as in περικαλλής right beautiful, very beautiful, and that of ‘going beyond’ or ‘exceeding’, as in περιτοξεύειν to overshoot. (b) In prepositional construction, forming parasynthetic adjs. and derived ns., e.g. περικάρδιος ‘situated περὶ καρδίᾳ, around or about the heart’, thence τὸ περικάρδιον ‘the membrane surrounding the heart, the pericardium’.
A small number of technical Greek words in περι- were adopted in ancient Latin; more were added in late and mediæval Latin; most of these are represented in the modern Romanic langs., and in English (see pericardium, pericarp, period, peripatetic, periphery, periphrase, periplus, peristyle, peritoneum); and, on the model of these, adaptations of ancient Greek compounds in περι-, and new compounds from Greek elements (frequently also from Latin elements), have been introduced in great numbers in modern scientific Latin (esp. in biological nomenclature), and in the scientific terminology of the modern languages generally, in which peri- has been found to be a convenient prefix for denominating the structure or region lying round a defined organ or part. Most of these terms are (with the appropriate modification of form) of international currency, and it is often difficult to ascertain in which of several languages a particular term was first used.
The more important peri- words (including those of historical standing, and those in more or less general use) will be found in their alphabetical places; others of less importance or more exclusively technical use follow here.
1. In numerous scientific terms, chiefly anatomical and pathological.

†2. In Crystallography, used (orig. in Fr., by Haüy) to form adjs. applied to prisms derived from primary four-sided prisms, whose faces are increased to the number indicated by the names, by the development of secondary facets on their edges: as peridecahedral, peri-dodecahedral, peri-hexahedral, peri-octahedral; so peripolygonal; also periorthogonous: see quots. Obs.
