Etymology

[edit]

First attested in 1865. Borrowed from French rayon, from rai + -on, from Latin radius.

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Is this from French "rayon" etymology 1 (< Latin radius) or etymology 2 (< Frankish for honeycomb)? Our English article raion disagrees.”

Regardless of etymology, not cognate with the English region, of which it is a false cognate.
