Stress is usually determined by a subsequent element and vowels may be reduced accordingly.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin osmo-.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin or scientific Latin osmo- (in e.g. osmometricus : see osmometrical adj.) < ancient Greek ὀσμή smell, odour, Attic form of ὀδμή (see odmyl n.) + post-classical Latin -o- -o- connective. Compare French osm-, osmo- (formations in which are found from at least the mid 19th cent.), Italian osmo- (formations in which are found from at least the late 19th cent.), German osmo- (formations in which are found from at least the early 20th cent.).English formations are found from the mid 19th cent. (apparently earliest in osmology , osmometry n.¹, osmometrical adj., osmonosology, all first attested in R. G. Mayne Expos. Lexicon Med. Sci. (1857)).
