pothos

Etymology

From translingual Pothos, the genus name. The similarity to Ancient Greek Πόθος (Póthos), the name of one of Aphrodite's erotes who was said to carry a vine (from πόθος (póthos, “yearning, desire”)) is noted; however, other references give the origin as Sinhalese පෝටා වැල් (pōṭā wæl).

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /pʰoʊ.θoʊs/

Noun

pothos (countable and uncountable, plural pothoses)

  1. Epipremnum aureum, a vine widely cultivated as a houseplant, once classified in the genus Pothos.
  2. (uncountable, botany) Pothos, a genus of plants consisting of subtropical and tropical, climbing, flowering vines, indigenous to the environs of the Indian Ocean and western Pacific Ocean.
