Etymology[edit]

Syllables

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word syllabus derives from modern Latinsyllabus 'list', in turn from a misreading of the Greek σίττυβος sittybos (the leather parchment label that gave the title and contents of a document), which first occurred in a 15th-century print of Cicero's letters to Atticus.^[1][3] Earlier Latin dictionaries such as Lewis and Short contain the word syllabus,^[4] relating it to the non-existent Greek word σύλλαβος, which appears to be a mistaken reading of syllaba 'syllable'; the newer Oxford Latin Dictionary does not contain this word.^{[5][self-published source?]} The apparent change from sitty- to sylla- is explained as a hypercorrection by analogy to συλλαμβάνω (syllambano 'bring together, gather').^[5]
