Origin: Apparently a borrowing from Italian, combined with an English element. Etymons: Italian pesce , vegetarian n.

Etymology: Apparently < Italian pesce fish (see pessoner n.) + -tarian (in vegetarian n.).If the assumption that the word was formed on Italian pesce is correct, the pronunciation with /sk/ (rather than /ʃ/) and the spelling pescatarian both suggest that this origin has been opaque to many from an early date.

A. adj.

Keeping to a diet which includes fish but not meat; of or relating to pescatarians or their practices (see sense B.).
