English[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From German flehmen. Respelled apparently under the influence of the common name-ending -man, due to the mistaken belief that the word (used in compounds like flehmen response) was an eponym. The term is sometimes capitalized (Flehmen, Flehman) for the same reason).
Noun[edit]
flehman (plural not attested)
- Nonstandard form of flehmen.
