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

Etymology: Alteration of telegraph n. (compare telegraph n. 3b), with remodelling of the ending after ancient Greek -ημα, suffix forming nouns (see -eme suffix). Compare modern Greek τηλεγράϕημα telegram (1859 or earlier).

= telegram n. 1.The term was proposed as a more accurate alternative to telegram, but was never generally adopted.

1857 R. Shilleto in Times 15 Oct. 7/5 May I suggest to such as are not contented with ‘Telegraphic Despatch’ the rightly constructed word ‘telegrapheme’? I do not want it, but..I protest against such a barbarism as ‘telegram’.

1867 Routledge's Every Boy's Ann. Jan. 53 The word telegram superseded telegrapheme.

1896 Westm. Gaz. 22 Feb. 8/2 The public..absolutely revolted against telegrapheme, and insisted on telegram, though..the famous Cambridge scholar Shilleto always talked about ‘sending a telegrapheme’—never a telegram.

1903 Punch 9 Sept. 171/2 Pedant. Please give me a form. I desire the immediate despatch of a telegrapheme.

1955 Walla Walla (Washington) Union-Bull 6 Apr. 4/3 If the ‘strictest laws of the language from which the root is taken’ were followed, ‘telegram’ would be ‘telegrapheme’.
