meatusn.

Brit.

/mɪˈeɪtəs/, U.S.

/miˈeɪdəs/

Inflections: Plural meatuses, (now rare) meatus.

Forms: late Middle English meatis (plural), late Middle English metis (plural), 1500s meati (plural), 1600s– meatus.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin meātus.

Etymology: < classical Latin meātus < meāre to go, pass + -tus, suffix forming verbal nouns. Classical Latin meāre is cognate with Welsh myned, mynd to set out, go, and verbs in most Slavonic languages in sense ‘to pass, go by’, as e.g. Old Church Slavonic minǫti, Russian minut′ (perfective), Polish minąć and mijać, Czech míjeti.The 16th-cent. plural form meati is irregularly formed by analogy with Latin masculine nouns of the second declension, whereas classical latin meātus is a masculine noun of the fourth declension, with plural meātūs. N.E.D. (1906) gives the pronunciation of the Latinate plural as (miēⁱ·tiūs) /miːˈeɪtjuːs/. Apparently more fully naturalized in Middle English.

†1. A channel, a passage. Obsolete.
