o-ramaとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

Back-formation from panorama and cyclorama (which are modern coinages, not Greek words), and thus from Ancient Greek ὅρᾱμᾰ (hórāma, “sight”, “spectacle”), in turn evolved from the Proto-Indo-European *wer-, meaning to perceive or look out for.

接尾辞

-orama

1. Used to form, from one noun, a second meaning "wide view of" the first, or (with ironic reference to the preceding sense) "surfeit of", "overattention to", or "exaggerated praise of" the first.

使用する際の注意点

• The suffix is usually appended without hyphenation, or occasionally with hyphen intended to catch the eye.
• Following a noun ending in a vowel or r sound, the altered form -rama is usually substituted.
