Etymology

From Енглески symbol, from Француски symbole, from Латински symbolus, symbolum (a sign, mark, token, symbol, in Late Latin also a creed), from Антички Грчки σύμβολον (súmbolon, a sign by which one infers something; a mark, token, badge, ticket, tally, check, a signal, watchword, outward sign).

Pronunciation

Usage notes

Being a word borrowed from English derived from Greek, the y in symbol is pronounced /ɨ̞, ɪ/ rather than expected /ə/. To preserve consistency between pronunciation and spelling, some prefer to spell this word sumbol. Nevertheless, symbol is the more common spelling of the two. See pyramid/puramid, synthesis/sunthesis, system/sustem for similar examples.

Noun
