embryonicadj.

Brit.

/ˌɛmbrɪˈɒnɪk/, U.S.

/ˌɛmbriˈɑnɪk/

Forms: 1700s embrionic, 1700s– embryonic.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: embryon n., -ic suffix.

Etymology: < embryon n. + -ic suffix. Compare earlier embryonal adj. and embryonical adj., and slightly later embryotic adj.In sense 1b apparently after French embryonnaire (1869 in V. Cornil & L. Ranvier Man. d'histologie pathologique (1869) I., the source translated in quot. 1880 at embryonal adj. 2b, or earlier). Cornil and Ranvier do not appear to use an exact formal equivalent of mixed embryonic tumour , and the use of that term in quot. 1884 at sense 1b is probably due to the fact that tumeur embryonnaire occurs in a chapter with the heading Tumeurs mixtes.

a. Of or relating to an embryo; that is in the condition of an embryo.
