abranchialadj.

Brit.

/eɪˈbraŋkɪəl/, U.S.

/ˌeɪˈbrɑŋkiəl/,

/ˌeɪˈbræŋkiəl/

Origin: A borrowing from Greek, combined with English elements; partly modelled on a French lexical item, and partly modelled on scientific Latin lexical items. Etymons: a- prefix⁶, Greek βράγχια , -al suffix¹.

Etymology: < a- prefix⁶ + ancient Greek βράγχια gills (see branchiae n.) + -al suffix¹, after the French and scientific Latin plural nouns cited at abranchiate adj. Compare earlier branchial adj. and slightly earlier abranchiate adj. N.E.D. (1884) gives the pronunciation as (ăbræ·ŋkiăl) /əˈbræŋkɪəl/.

Zoology. Now rare.

= abranchiate adj.
