The hip bones or bones forming the hip joint, particularly the femur and pelvis.
Compound of 'cox' (from Latin coxa, hip) and 'bones,' a simple English formation that combines medical terminology with common language.
This is one of the few coxal terms that actually sounds like modern English instead of medical jargon—it's a refreshingly straightforward way to say 'hip bones' that still sounds technical.
