Forms: 1800s geodaesical, 1800s geodesiacal (irregular), 1800s– geodesical.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: geodesy n., -ical suffix.

Etymology: < geodesy n. + -ical suffix. Compare earlier geodesic adj., geodetical adj., and also geodetic adj.In form geodesiacal after e.g. zodiacal adj.

= geodesic adj. 2.
