Etymology: < post-classical Latin neuma, pneuma melody, melisma, breath of God, Holy Spirit (see neume n.) and its etymon ancient Greek πνεῦμα wind, breath, in Hellenistic Greek also spirit, in Byzantine Greek also a sign in musical notation indicating a leap < πνεῖν (uncontracted πνέειν ) to blow, to breathe (perhaps < the same Indo-European base as fnese v.) + -μα (see -oma comb. form).With sense 1 compare Spanish pneuma (1498 or earlier; now usually neuma ). Compare neume n., neuma n., pneum n. With sense 2 compare Italian pneuma (1521), French pneuma (1824; compare Middle French neupmate (in paraclit neupmate the Holy Ghost, c1500 in an apparently isolated attestation)).
