Geomaly

/dʒiːˈɒməli/ noun

Definition

An extremely rare or archaic term with unclear meaning, possibly related to Earth-based anomalies or irregularities.

Etymology

From geo- 'earth' + possibly -maly (from Greek anomaly, meaning 'irregularity'). This word is so obscure that it appears in almost no modern references.

Kelly Says

This might be one of those words that existed in a single 18th-century scientific text and has haunted dictionaries ever since—a fossil word from when scientific terminology was still being invented!
