Centauric

/sɛnˈtɔːrɪk/ adjective

Definition

Of or relating to centaurs; characteristic of or resembling a centaur.

Etymology

From 'centaur' plus the adjectival suffix '-ic' (meaning 'of or relating to'). A variant form alongside 'centaurial' and 'centaurian,' from the same mythological root.

Kelly Says

Scholars have literally invented five different adjectives for 'centaur-like' because the Greek myths were that culturally important to medieval and Renaissance writers—none of them stuck.
