metrotomen.

Brit.

/ˈmiːtrətəʊm/, U.S.

/ˈmitrəˌtoʊm/

Forms: 1800s metratome (irregular), 1800s– metrotome.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; perhaps modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: metro- comb. form³, -tome comb. form.

Etymology: < metro- comb. form³ + -tome comb. form, perhaps after French métrotome (1840).Although N.E.D. (1906) gives the pronunciation as (me·trŏtō^um) /ˈmɛtrətəʊm/, this is almost certainly a misprint for (mī·trŏtō^um) /ˈmiːtrətəʊm/.

Surgery. Now historical.

A cutting instrument used in uterine surgery, esp. to incise the cervix; a hysterotome.
