单词

-metry

释义

-metry
(repr. Gr. -µετρία action or process of measuring, f. -µέτρης measurer, µέτρον measure), a terminal element of ns. with the general sense ‘action, process, or art of measuring (something specified by the initial element)’. A few of the words with this ending represent actual Greek words, as geometry, stichometry; many have been formed in modern times on assumed Gr. types, as aerometry, anthropometry, etc.; in the 19th c. there were many hybrid formations in which the initial element is a Latin or a modern word, as alkalimetry, calorimetry. Most of the ns. in -meter have correlative words in -metry, denoting specifically the process of measuring by the instrument called ‘—meter’.
