mirabile dictu
- /mɪˌɹɑːbɪleɪ ˈdɪktuː/
Where it comes from
Borrowed from Latin mīrābile dictū (literally “able to astonish by the saying [of it]”).
interjection
- Wonderfully, amazingly; remarkable to relate. And then, mirabile dictu, between the piers, leaping from wave to wave as it rushed at headlong speed, swept the strange schooner before the blast, with all sail set, and gained the safety of the harbour.
