pan-
combining form and formative element, repr. Gr. παν- from πᾶν, neuter of πᾶς all, which was freely used in Greek, esp. with adjs. to which it stood in advb. relation in the sense ‘all, wholly, entirely, altogether, by all, of all’, as in πανάγαθος altogether good, πανάγιος all-holy, πανακής all-healing, πανάριστος best of all, παναρµόνιος suited to all musical modes, πάνδηµος pertaining to all the people, public, πάνοπλος fully-armed, πανσέληνος of the full moon, πάνσοϕος all-wise; so from national names, as πανελλήνιος of all the Greeks, πανιώνιος of all the Ionians; also in ns., etc. derived from these adjs., and some other ns., as πανδέκτης an all-receiver, πανηγεµών ruler of all, πανήγυρις a universal or general assembly, πανοπλία panoply.
Hence pan- occurs in English in words taken or derived from Greek, and in many others formed more or less on the same analogy either in English, med. or mod. Latin, or French. It is especially common with national names, after πανελλήνιος, πανιώνιος, etc., where it has become a living suffix, prefixed whenever needed. Before a labial παν- became παµ-, and before a guttural παγ- (= paŋ-), as πάµϕιλος, παµϕίλητος beloved of all, πάγκρεας the sweetbread, the pancreas; the former of these is retained in some English derivatives (see pam-).
The following are examples of the uses of pan-; the more important words will be found in their places as Main words.
1. With national names, and words formed in imitation of them, with the sense ‘Of, pertaining to, or comprising all (those indicated in the body of the word)’; with ns. in -ism and -ist, generally expressing the notion of or aspiration for the political union of all those indicated, a sense which also tends to colour the adj. Of modern formations of this kind, Panslavism and Panslavist, with their related words, appear to have been the earliest. Among others are: pan-ˌAnglo-ˈSaxon a., of or including all of ‘Anglo-Saxon’ race. pan-anthropoˈlogical a., of all anthropologists. pan-aˈtomic a., consisting of all the atoms (humorous). pan-ˈBuddhist a., of or embracing all Buddhists; so pan-ˈBuddhism. pan-ˈCeltic a., of all Celts, or all the Celtic peoples; hence pan-ˈCelticism; (as a back-formation) pan-Celt, one who believes in the unity of all the Celtic peoples. pan-ˈChristian a., universal Christian. pan-denomiˈnational a., of or embracing all religious denominations. pan-ecclesiˈastical a., representing a whole church or ecclesiastical body. pan-ˈGothic a., common to or including all the Gothic or Teutonic races or languages, Germanic. pan-ˈhuman a., of or pertaining to all human beings. pan-Iˈonian, pan-Iˈonic adjs., of or comprising all Ionians. pan-ˈIsraelitish a., of or pertaining to all Israelites. pan-ˈLatinist a., of or embracing all the Latin races. pan-ˈOrthodox a., of, pertaining to, including, or representing all the Orthodox churches of the East; hence pan-ˈOrthodoxy, the principle of a union of all the Orthodox churches. pan-ˈProtestant a., of or common to all Protestants. pan-ˈSaxon a. = Pan-Anglo-Saxon. pan-Teuˈtonic a., of or embracing all Teutonic peoples; hence pan-ˈTeutonism, the principle of a union of all Teutonic peoples. pan-Tuˈranian a., embracing all the speakers of Ural-Altaic languages; hence pan-Tuˈranianism, -Tuˈranism, the principle of a union of all speakers of these languages.
