pū | nĭ | căns
  • (pronuncia classica) IPA: /ˈpuː.ni.kans/
  • (pronuncia ecclesiastica) IPA: /ˈpu.ni.kans/

dal greco antico φοῖνιξ, "porpora", o φοινός, "purpureo, scarlatto"; si confronti puniceus, "rosso acceso, scarlatto", e Punicus, "fenicio", (i fenici erano noti nel mondo antico per la lavorazione della porpora). L'aggettivo si ritrova praticamente nel solo Apuleio, e potrebbe essere un suo conio letterario
