Epiglottides

/ˌɛpɪɡlɑːˈtɪdiːz/ noun

Definition

Plural form of epiglottis in anatomical terminology, referring to multiple epiglottises or using a Latin plural form.

Etymology

From Greek epiglottis with Latin -ides plural ending. Medical Greek-Latin hybrid used in formal anatomical descriptions.

Kelly Says

Different plurals exist for anatomical terms—epiglottides is the fancy Latin plural, but modern medicine usually just says 'epiglottises' because English has taken over scientific language!
