Origin: A variant or alteration of another lexical item; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymon: hexagon n.

Etymology: Alteration of hexagon n., after classical Latin sex six (see sex- comb. form). Compare post-classical Latin sexagonus (from 14th cent. in British sources), Middle French sexagone (1569), both in sense ‘hexagonal’. Compare earlier sexangle n.
