Brit.

/ˌpɛrəˈsiniəm/

Forms: 1700s– parascenium, 1800s parascene.

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

Etymology: < post-classical Latin parascenium (1673 or earlier) < ancient Greek παρασκήνιον one of the side-entrances to the stage, a side-scene ( < παρα- para- prefix¹ + σκηνή scene n. + -ιον, neuter of -ιος, suffix forming adjectives). Compare French parascénium (1743–52 in Trévoux). N.E.D. (1904) enters this under parascene and gives the pronunciation as (pæ·răsīn) /ˈpærəsiːn/.

Classical History.
