Etymology[edit]
From the definition given, meta- + quotidian seems more probable. Equinox ◑ 16:43, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
- More probable, yes, but the references I read seem to indicate that it really was from metaphysics. Kiwima (talk) 19:09, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
- I still vaguely wonder if we should note it as meta- anyway (because that's the construction), adding that the meta- prefix in this case is in reference to metaphysics. It's a bit weird to call it a blend when the word-coiner must have recognised meta- as a prefix and picked it off the physical bit, rather than haphazardly mashing up the two words.
