signaleticadj.

Brit.

/sɪɡnəˈlɛtɪk/, U.S.

/sɪɡnəˈlɛdɪk/

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: sign n., -al suffix¹, -etic suffix; signal n., -etic suffix.

Etymology: In sense 1 either irregularly < sign n. + -al suffix¹ + -etic suffix, or perhaps < signal n. (although this is not attested in the sense ‘algebraic sign’) + -etic suffix; perhaps compare French signalétique containing a description of a thing (1832), marking a thing (1846; < signaler signal v. + -étique -etic suffix). In sense 2 < signal n. + -etic suffix, after French signalétique (A. Bertillon 1893 or earlier, in this specific sense). N.E.D. (1910) gives the pronunciation as (signăle·tik) /sɪɡnəˈlɛtɪk/.

†1. Relating to, or characterized by the use of, the algebraic signs plus and minus. Obsolete.
