Etymologies
from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License
From the Latin nexūs, nominative plural form of nexus; the circumflex exists to distinguish the long vowel of the plural (/ə/ in English and /uː/ in Latin) from the short vowel of the singular (/u/ in both English and in Latin), avoiding homography; compare nexūs.
