The word 'taxi' - in the US: '(taxi)cab'- is a contraction of two words: "taximeter cabriolet'. The word taximeter is of Greek origin, meaning 'definer of the cost to be paid', and the word 'cab' was already the common abbreviation for the two-wheeled horse-drawn cabriolet, the Hansom Cab, that served as a taxi before the motorized version came along.
