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