anatine \AN-uh-tahyn, -tin\ adjective 1. resembling a duck. 2. of or pertaining to the family Anatidae, comprising the swans, geese, and ducks. Quotes I took refuge in wild theorizing,--if Angels be the next higher being from Man, perhaps the Duck had 'morphos'd into some Anatine Equivalent, acting as my guardian… -- Thomas Pynchon, Mason & Dixon: A Novel, 1997 Origin Anatine comes from the Latin word for "duck," anas. It entered English in the mid-1800s.
