fellatio

== English == === Alternative forms === fellation === Etymology === Learned borrowing from Latin fellātiō, from fellātus, perfect participle of fellō (“I suck, I fellate”). The word started to appear in medical literature in the 19th century but it was still treated as Latin. In 1919, the California Supreme Court struck down a law criminalizing fellatio because the state constitution required laws to be written in English. By the late 20th century, fellatio was treated as an English word. === Pronunciation === (Received Pronunciation) IPA(key): /fəˈleɪ.ʃi.əʊ/ (General American) IPA(key): /fəˈleɪ.ʃi.oʊ/ Rhymes: -eɪʃiəʊ Hyphenation: fel‧la‧tio === Noun === fellatio (usually uncountable, plural fellatios) Performance of oral sex upon the penis.
