hippusn.

Brit.

/ˈhɪpəs/, U.S.

/ˈhɪpəs/

Forms: 1500s–1600s hippos, 1700s– hippus.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French hippos; Latin hippus, hippos.

Etymology: < (i) Middle French hippos (1584 in the passage translated in quot. ?1587), and its etymon (ii) post-classical Latin hippus (1529 or earlier; also as hippos, hyppos) < ancient Greek ἵππος horse, in Hellenistic Greek also denoting a complaint of the eyes (see hippo- comb. form). The semantic motivation for the post-classical Latin noun is unclear.

Medicine.

Originally: any of various conditions involving abnormal movement of the eyes or eyelids; esp. nystagmus. In later use: spec. rhythmic constriction and dilatation of the pupil, independent of the level of illumination.
