microbiologyn.

Brit.

/ˌmʌɪkrə(ʊ)bʌɪˈɒlədʒi/, U.S.

/ˈˌmaɪkroʊˌbaɪˈɑlədʒi/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: micro- comb. form, biology n.

Etymology: < micro- comb. form + biology n. Compare French microbiologie (1883).P. Wright observes ( Lang. Brit. Industry (1974) iv. 44) that ‘the first i of microbiology is said both short and long’, but makes no attempt to characterize the distribution of the two pronunciations. A monophthongal pronunciation in the first syllable does not appear to be attested elsewhere for this word, but compare note on pronunciation s.v. micro- comb. form.

Biology.

The branch of science that deals with microorganisms. Also (chiefly with distinguishing word): the study of the microorganisms associated with a particular disease, habitat, etc.
