( Received Pronunciation ) IPA (key ) : /ˈjʊɹənəs/ ,/jʊˈɹeɪnəs/ ( US ) IPA (key ) : /ˈjʊɹənəs/ ,/juˈɹeɪnəs/ Rhymes:-ʊɹənəs ,-eɪnəs By the rules of Latin accentuation, the stress would fall on the first syllable because the "a" is short. The more recent pronunciation with a stress on the second syllable, likely influenced byuranium , is sometimes avoided or proscribed because of thehomophony withyour anus in conversational speech.[ 1] Uranus
( astronomy ) The seventhplanet in oursolar system , discovered in 1781 byWilliam Herschel .Synonyms: Georgian planet ,Georgium Sidus ,Herschel ,( humorous ) Urectum ,♅ 1789 June, “LETTER from M. DE LA LANDE, on the NAME of the PLANET HERSCHEL, to the EDITORS of the JOURNAL des SCAVANS .”, inThe European Magazine [1] ,page437 , column 1:The giving the name ofUranus , however, to the planet of M. Herſchel, in which M. Bode ſtill perſiſts, is an act of ingratitude to the author of that noble diſcovery, and an affront to that auguſt and munificent patron of aſtronomy, the King of Great Britain ; whoſe name ought to be preferred to every other, if that of the author had not a ſtill more forcible claim on our acknowledgements. Beſides, the name ofUranus is an impropriety, even according to the mythological ſyſtem. Sanchoniathon and Diodorus, it is true, ſay, that Saturn was the ſon ofUranus ; but this is now allowed to be purely allegorical.
