adj.

1835, displaced older abnormous (1742) and rival anormal (1835) under influence of latin abnormis “deviating from a rule,” from ab- “off, away from” (see ab-) + norma “rule” (see norm). the older forms were via old french anormal (13c.), from medieval latin anormalos, from greek anomalos, from an- “not” + homalos, from h-m-s “same.” the greek word was altered in latin by -ssociation with norma. related: abnormally.
