Jupiter's planetary symbol ⟨♃⟩
The planet Jupiter

Etymology[edit]

From Latin Iūpiter (“father Jove”), from Proto-Italic *djous patēr (literally “sky father”) (cognate with Ancient Greek Ζεῦ πάτερ (Zeû páter, “father Zeus”)), from *djous (“day, sky”) + *patēr (“father”), from Proto-Indo-European *dyḗws (literally “the bright one”), from *dyew- (“to be bright, day sky”), and *ph₂tḗr (“father”). Doublet of Dyaus Pita.

Pronunciation[edit]

  • (US) IPA(key): /ˈd͡ʒupɪtɚ/, [ˈd͡ʒupɪɾɚ]
  • audio (US)(file)

Proper noun[edit]

Jupiter

  2. (astronomy) The fifth and by far the largest planet in the Solar System, a gas giant, represented by the symbol ♃ in astronomy. Jupiter is known for its Great Red Spot and many moons including the Galilean moons.
  4. (Roman mythology) The King of the Gods, also called Jove. Equivalent to the Greek Zeus, Jupiter was one of the children of Saturn. As supreme god of the Roman pantheon, Jupiter was the god of thunder, lightning, and storms, and appropriately called the god of light and sky.
  5. (informal) The largest of a group of things or a region.
    Brazil could be considered the Jupiter of South America.
  6. A number of places in the United States:
    1. An unincorporated community in Tuolumne County, California, named after a mine.
    2. A town in Palm Beach County, Florida, named in error after the Roman god.
    3. A township in Kittson County, Minnesota, named after the planet.
    4. An unincorporated community in Buncombe County, North Carolina.
  7. A summer resort on the Black Sea in Romania.
