† meteoroliten.

Forms: 1800s meteorolite, 1800s meteorolithe (rare).

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: meteoro- comb. form, -lite comb. form¹.

Etymology: < meteoro- comb. form + -lite comb. form¹, after French météorolithe (1812).The rare form meteorolithe in quot. 1812 at main sense is after the spelling of the French word. N.E.D. (1906) gives the pronunciation as (mī·tĭˌǫ̆rŏləit) /ˈmiːtɪərəlaɪt/.

Obsolete.
