query: which vegetable gets its name from the latin word small nail

pos: Broccoli compounds lutein and zeaxanthin in amounts about 6 times lower than in kale. The perceived bitterness of cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli varies from person to person, but the functional underpinnings of this variation are not known. Some research reports that the gene TAS2R38 may be responsible for bitter taste perception in broccoli. Other factors, such as isothiocyanates and polyphenols, are also likely involved in bitterness perception. Broccoli Broccoli is an edible green plant in the cabbage family whose large flowering head is eaten as a vegetable. The word "broccoli" comes from the Italian plural of "", which means "the

pos: Broccoli Broccoli Broccoli is an edible green plant in the cabbage family whose large flowering head is eaten as a vegetable. The word "broccoli" comes from the Italian plural of "", which means "the flowering crest of a cabbage", and is the diminutive form of "brocco", meaning "small nail" or "sprout". Broccoli is often boiled or steamed but may be eaten raw. Broccoli is classified in the Italica cultivar group of the species "Brassica oleracea". Broccoli has large flower heads, usually green in color, arranged in a tree-like structure branching out from a thick, edible stalk. The mass of flower heads

pos: Brocade Brocade Brocade is a class of richly decorative shuttle-woven fabrics, often made in colored silks and with or without gold and silver threads. The name, related to the same root as the word "broccoli", comes from Italian "broccato" meaning "embossed cloth", originally past participle of the verb "broccare" "to stud, set with nails", from "brocco", "small nail", from Latin "broccus", "projecting, pointed". Brocade is typically woven on a draw loom. It is a supplementary weft technique; that is, the ornamental brocading is produced by a supplementary, non-structural, weft in addition to the standard weft that holds the warp threads together.

pos: Gai lan Gai lan Gai lan ("Brassica oleracea" var. "alboglabra") is the Cantonese name and jie lan is the Mandarin name for a vegetable that is also known as Chinese broccoli or Chinese kale. It is a leaf vegetable with thick, flat, glossy blue-green leaves with thick stems, and flower heads similar to but much smaller than broccoli, another "Brassica oleracea" cultivar, but gai lan is in the group "alboglabra" (from Latin "albus" "white" and "glabrus" "hairless"). Its flavor is very similar to that of broccoli, but slightly more bitter. It is also noticeably stronger. Broccolini is a hybrid between broccoli and

The malleus gets its name from Latin "malleus", meaning "hammer", the incus gets its name from Latin "incus" meaning "anvil" from incudere meaning "to forge with a hammer", and the stapes gets its name from Modern Latin "stirrup," probably an alteration of Late Latin "stapia" related to stare "to stand" and pedem, an accusative of pes "foot", so called because the bone is shaped like a stirrup – this was an invented Modern Latin word for "stirrup," for which there was no classical Latin word, as the ancients did not use

neg: Turnip Turnip The turnip or white turnip ("Brassica rapa" subsp. "rapa") is a root vegetable commonly grown in temperate climates worldwide for its white, fleshy taproot. The word "turnip" is a compound of "tur-" as in turned/rounded on a lathe and "neep", derived from Latin "napus", the word for the plant. Small, tender varieties are grown for human consumption, while larger varieties are grown as feed for livestock. In the north of England, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall and eastern Canada (Newfoundland), turnip (or "neep") often refers to rutabaga, a larger, yellow root vegetable in the same genus (Brassica) also known as swede

neg: Cabot family Cabot family The Cabot family was part of the Boston Brahmin, also known as the "first families of Boston." The Boston Brahmin Cabot family descended from John Cabot (b. 1680 in Jersey, one of the Channel Islands), who emigrated from his birthplace to Salem, Massachusetts in 1700. The Cabot family emigrated from Jersey, where the family name can be traced back to at least 1274. In Jersey, historian the Rev George Balleine records that the Cabot is a small fish that seems all head (It gets its name from the Latin word, caput, a head). Claims that the Cabot family

neg: Clavichord Clavichord The clavichord is a European stringed rectangular keyboard instrument that was used largely in the Late Middle Ages, through the Renaissance, Baroque and Classical eras. Historically, it was mostly used as a practice instrument and as an aid to composition, not being loud enough for larger performances. The clavichord produces sound by striking brass or iron strings with small metal blades called tangents. Vibrations are transmitted through the bridge(s) to the soundboard. The name is derived from the Latin word "clavis", meaning "key" (associated with more common "clavus", meaning "nail, rod, etc.") and "chorda" (from Greek χορδή) meaning "string,

Later, the genus name "Fringilla" came to be used only for the common chaffinch and its relatives, and the house sparrow has usually been placed in the genus "Passer" created by French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson in 1760. The bird's scientific name and its usual English name have the same meaning. The Latin word "passer", like the English word "sparrow", is a term for small active birds, coming from a root word referring to speed. The Latin word "domesticus" means "belonging to the house", like the common name a reference to its association with humans. The house sparrow is

It gets its name from the Latin word ferocious, likely from the spine-tipped lobes on the leaves of the plant. It is found naturally on the south-eastern coast of Africa where it has been used by local people for its starch content. It is considered to be one of the most popular cultivated cycads. The species was first described in 1851 when material was collected from Mozambique. After looking at material found in Natal, South Africa, it was redescribed as

neg: Angusticlavia and other representations of the Roman past "show all types of men and boys wearing stripes of similar width -- but there were later attempts to enforce or reintroduce the senatorial and equestrian classes." The Latin word "angusticlavia" is compounded of "angustus" ("narrow; small") and "clavus" ("nail; stud"). The word "clavus," or "nail", refers to the stripes, for being as long as nails. The term "angustus", or "narrow", refers to these stripes or ornaments as being slimmer than on the senatorial laticlavus. Angusticlavia In ancient Rome, an angusticlavia, angusticlavus, or angustus clavus was a narrow-strip tunic ("tunica") with two narrow

The Korean name for napa cabbage, baechu (), is a nativized word from the Sino-Korean reading, "baekchae", of the same Chinese character sets. Today in Mandarin Chinese, napa cabbage is known as dàbáicài (), literally "big white vegetable", as opposed to the "small white vegetable" that is known in English as bok choy. Outside of Asia, this vegetable is also referred to as Chinese cabbage. Regionally, it is also known as sui

neg: Commodity markets. The wide availability of commodities typically leads to smaller profit margins and diminishes the importance of factors (such as brand name) other than price. The word "commodity" came into use in English in the 15th century, from the French "commodité", "amenity, convenience". Going further back, the French word derives from the Latin "commoditas", meaning "suitability, convenience, advantage". The Latin word "commodus" (from which English gets other words including "commodious" and "accommodate") meant variously "appropriate", "proper measure, time, or condition", and "advantage, benefit". In economics, the term "commodity" is used specifically for economic goods or services that have full or

He says that many tears of Styrax benzoin "are translucent, or, in a few cases, almost transparent." One type of benzoin has "numerous, white, small pieces . . . intermingled, which thereby give the broken surface a speckled appearance" which he calls "marbly." As mentioned above, although the word onycha has been interpreted as meaning "nail" it is pointed out that nail or claw is actually an extended connotation of

The polysaccharide that makes up plant starch is named amylose, or "starch sugar"; see amyl. There are these theories about the origin of the "-ose" suffix:- -ose The suffix -ose ( or ) is used in biochemistry to form the names of sugars. This Latin suffix means "full of", "abounding in", "given to", or "like". Numerous systems exist to name specific sugars more descriptively. Monosaccharides, the simplest sugars, may be named according to the number of carbon atoms in each

Today the river is polluted and is channelled to a sewage treatment plant and no longer reaches its natural confluence with the Tiber. The Latin name of the Almone, "Almo" (also the name of its corresponding deity), is derived from the Latin word "almus", meaning "fertile" or "nourishing," which may derive from its connection to Cybele, also known as "Magna Mater" ("Great Mother"). In modern times the stream has been called Marrana della Caffarella. "Marrana" (or "marana" in

Nail extensions are artificial nails created by using a nail product to extend the nail past the edge of the natural nail. Soft gel refers to the gel products that are too soft to create a nail extension. This includes gel polishes and thicker gels meant for gel-overlay services. Gel polishes are used for the increasingly popular gel polish manicures. These manicures are gentle to the natural nail

neg: Vegetable in English in the early 15th century. It comes from Old French, and was originally applied to all plants; the word is still used in this sense in biological contexts. It derives from Medieval Latin "vegetabilis" "growing, flourishing" (i.e. of a plant), a semantic change from a Late Latin meaning "to be enlivening, quickening". The meaning of "vegetable" as a "plant grown for food" was not established until the 18th century. In 1767, the word was specifically used to mean a "plant cultivated for food, an edible herb or root". The year 1955 saw the first use of the shortened,

The species name "nana" was derived from a Latin word "nanus" meaning "dwarf", and was chosen because of its small size. "Acmella nana" has a shell, which is whitish in colour and has a shiny appearance. The shell is translucent and measures 0.50 to 0.60 mm in width, and 0.60 to 0.79 mm in height. In average the size is 0.7 mm. Due to its size, it cannot be directly noticed by naked eye, and

The underworld windowskate is known from patches of continental slope in the western Atlantic Ocean between the coasts of the southern United States and Suriname. The underworld windowskate's genus name, "Fenestraja", comes from a combination of two words. "Fenestre" is a Latin word meaning window, which in this case refers to a small opening in bone. A second Latin word, "Raja" simply refers to the genus as a skate/ray of the family Rajidae. Its species

It is a small Provençal village with narrow, winding streets which backs on to a hill. The Durance flows away below a plateau which grows mainly cereals and apples and also supports some livestock. The most common theory is that name comes from the Latin "Vallis Mellis" which is translated as valley of honey. Charles Rostaing suggested that the name sounds like a word for mountain and so this might be its origin. Ernest Nègre proposed that the name is composed of Latin

The species' binomial name is derived from the Latin "cuculus" (the cuckoo) and "canorus" (melodious; from "canere", meaning to sing). The cuckoo family gets its common name and genus name by onomatopoeia for the call of the male common cuckoo. The English word "cuckoo" comes from the Old French "cucu" and it first appears about 1240 in the poem "Sumer Is Icumen In" - "Summer has come in / Loudly sing, Cuckoo!" in modern English.

neg: Manicure Other nail treatments may include the application of artificial gel nails, tips, or acrylics, which may be referred to as "French manicures". In many areas, manicurists are licensed and follow regulations. Since skin is manipulated and is sometimes trimmed, there is a risk of spreading infection when tools are used across many people. Therefore, having proper sanitation can be a serious issue. The English word "manicure" comes from the French word "manucure", meaning "care of the hands", which in turn originates from the Latin words "manus", for "hand", and "cura", for "care". Similarly, the English word "pedicure" comes from the

Thereafter, the word came to be used for a tag of skin or torn cuticle near a fingernail or toenail. Several words in Medieval Latin were subject to folk etymology. For example, the word "widerdonum" meaning "reward" was borrowed from Old High German "widarlōn" "repayment of a loan". The "l→d" alteration is due to confusion with Latin "donum" "gift". Similarly, the word

Silverjaw minnow Silverjaw minnows ("Ericymba buccata") are part of the family Cyprinidae, which includes carps and minnows. With over 300 known species, there are more species of minnows native to North America's fresh waters than any other fish. Minnows can be hard to distinguish because many look alike. All minnows have one dorsal fin, ventral fins near the anus,

neg: Shingles The family name of all the herpesviridae derives from the Greek word "herpein" ("to creep"), referring to the latent, recurring infections typical of this group of viruses. "Zoster" comes from Greek "zōstēr", meaning "belt" or "girdle", after the characteristic belt-like dermatomal rash. The common name for the disease, "shingles", derives from the Latin "cingulus", a variant of Latin "cingulum" meaning "girdle". In Arabic its name means "belt of fire", while in Spanish it means "small snake"; in Hindi it means "big rash" and in Norwegian its name is "helvetesild", literally "hell's fire".

Members of this species reach 3.2

neg: Fusilier Fusilier Fusilier is a name given to various kinds of soldiers; its meaning depends on the historical context. While fusilier is derived from the 17th-century French word "fusil" – meaning a type of flintlock musket – the term has been used in contrasting ways in different countries and at different times, including soldiers guarding artillery, various elite units, ordinary line infantry and other uses. The word "fusil", which was the name of the type of musket carried by a fusilier, is itself derived from the Old French and Latin "foisil" , meaning a piece of flint. Flintlock small arms were

"Thio" is derived from the Greek word "thios" and describes the use of sulfur as an energy source, and "bacillus" describes the shape of these microorganisms, which are small rods. The species name, "caldus", is derived from the Latin word for warm or hot, denoting this species' love of a warm environment. "Thiobacillus caldus" was reclassified into "Acidithiobacillus", one of three new genera (also including "Halothiobacillus" and "Thermithiobacillus") created to further classify members of the genus which fall into the alpha-, beta-, and

neg: Faid nothing can be said with any certainty. According to a legend, the village's name comes from "Fett" – German for “fat” – from the story that holds that the village once had to supply the lordly kitchen with fat. It seems likelier, though, that the name comes from the Latin word "feudum", which means “fief” (and which also yields the English word “feudal”). Another scholarly opinion, however, holds that the name is indeed of Latin origin, but that it rather comes from "fagus", the word for “beech”. In 943, Faid had its first documentary mention in a donation document made

neg: Gray mouse lemur derives from the Greek words "mikros", meaning "small", and "kebos", meaning "monkey". The Latin version of "kebos", "cebus", is a common suffix used for primate names, despite the fact that the gray mouse lemur is a lemur, and not a monkey. The species name, "murinus", means "mouse-like" and derives from the Latin word "mus", or "mouse", and the Latin suffix "-inus", which means "like". The lemur is known locally by several names in Malagasy, depending upon the region. Around Tôlanaro (Fort Dauphin), it is called "pondiky" . In the northern end of its range, it is known as "tsidy" .

neg: Aeonium sedifolium small, golden yellow flowers that bloom from April to May. To botanical name "Aeonium" comes from the ancient Greek word "aionios" (eternal), because it retains its leaves. The "sedifolium" name results from the name of its sibling genus "Sedum" (stonecrop) and from the Latin word folius (leaves), because of the similarity with that species. "Aeonium sedifolium" grows in full sun or partial shade on eroded volcanic soil. The plant is native to western Tenerife in the Canary Islands, the islands of La Palma and La Gomera. Aeonium sedifolium Aeonium sedifolium is a perennial plant of the family of succulents (Crassulaceae).

neg: Ambedus Ambedus Ambedus is an extinct genus of diadectid reptiliomorph. Fossils have been found from the Early Permian Dunkard Group of Monroe County, Ohio. The type species "A. pusillus" was named in 2004. The genus name comes from the Latin word "ambedo" meaning "to nibble", in reference to its herbivorous diet. The specific name "pusillus" means "tiny" in Latin. "Ambedus" is a small diadectid known only from maxillae and dentary bones. It is considered the most primitive diadectid because unlike other forms it had a small, shallow lower jaw and many simple, conical teeth. It was also smaller than the later,

The name 'Moussey' comes from the Latin word 'Monticellus' meaning 'little mountain'. The village is set on a small hill at the foot of which a fast flowing mountain stream fully deserves its name, the (in Latin, 'rapidus

neg: Avrely created names, although in this case the name was simply re-introduced. Its diminutives include Avrelya (), Relya (), and Ava (). The patronymics derived from "Avrely" are "" ("Avreliyevich"), "" ("Avrelyevich"; both masculine); and "" ("Avreliyevna"), "" ("Avrelyevna"; both feminine). Avrely Avrely () is an old and rare Russian male first name. Its feminine version is Avreliya. The name is derived from Latin "Aurelius" (a Roman gens), itself derived from either the Latin word "aurum", meaning "gold", or the combination of the Latin word "aureus"/"aureoeus" (meaning "golden") and the Greek word "hēlios", meaning "Sun". The name was included into various,

neg: Leprechaun The name "leprechaun" is derived from the Irish word , defined by Patrick Dinneen as "a pigmy, a sprite, or leprechaun". The further derivation is less certain; according to most sources, the word is thought to be a corruption of Middle Irish "luchrupán", from the Old Irish , a compound of the roots "lú" ("small") and "corp" ("body"). The root "corp", which was borrowed from the Latin "corpus", attests to the early influence of Ecclesiastical Latin on the Irish language. The alternative spelling "leithbrágan" stems from a folk etymology deriving the word from "leith" (half) and "bróg" (brogue), because of

neg: Gohan Gohan Gohan's name comes from the Japanese word , a continuation of the naming scheme of foods by Toriyama. Rice, being a grain, is not normally considered to be a vegetable, even though it is a common food. However, as the word "vegetable" is a culinary term, and not a botanical term, the name can also continue the naming scheme for Saiyan characters, which derives names from puns on vegetables. In conceptualizing for Gohan's character, Toriyama originally included glasses or a jacket to his apparel, and commonly, his hair is spiked up as seen in the final design. With the

Obelism Obelism is the practice of annotating manuscripts with marks set in the margins. Modern obelisms are used by editors when proofreading a manuscript or typescript. Examples are "stet" (which is Latin for "Let it stand," used in this context to mean "disregard the previous mark") and "dele" (for "Delete"). The obelos symbol (see obelus) gets its name from the spit, or sharp end of a lance in ancient Greek. An obelos was placed by editors on the margins

neg: Eoraptor put on display in Chicago and was then returned to San Juan, Argentina, where it went on display at the Museum of Natural Sciences. The genus name "Eoraptor" is derived from the Greek word "eos" (ηως) meaning "dawn", a reference to its primitive nature and the Latin word "raptor" meaning "plunderer", a reference to its presumed carnivorous nature and its grasping hand. The specific name "lunensis" is derived from the Latin words "luna" meaning "moon", and the suffix "~ensis", meaning "inhabitant". The specific name "lunensis" is a reference to its place of discovery: the "Valle de la Luna", which is

Corvin The name Corvin comes from the Latin name Corvinus which derives from the Latin word corvus meaning raven, although the word today refers to the birds' genus including ravens and crows among others. Corvin most commonly is a surname, but it and its variations are being used as a given name as well. As a surname it can refer to: and others. As a given name its most common variations

neg: Carnelian common term, "carnelian" is a 16th-century corruption of the 14th-century word "cornelian" (and its associated orthographies corneline and cornalyn). Cornelian, cognate with similar words in several Romance languages, comes from the Mediaeval Latin "corneolus", itself derived from the Latin word "cornum", the cornel cherry, whose translucent red fruits resemble the stone. The Oxford English Dictionary calls "carnelian" a perversion of "cornelian", by subsequent analogy with the Latin word "caro, carnis", flesh. According to Pliny the Elder, sard derived its name from the city of Sardis in Lydia from which it came, and according to others, may ultimately be related to

neg: European serin European serin The European serin, or just serin, ("Serinus serinus") is the smallest European species of the family of finches (Fringillidae) and is closely related to the canary. Its diet consists mainly of a combination of buds and seeds. The European serin was described by Carl Linnaeus in 1766 in the 12th edition of his "Systema Naturae" under the binomial name "Fringilla serinus". The Latin "serinus" comes from the French word "serin" for a canary. The French word may be a corruption of the Latin word "citrinus" meaning lemon-coloured. The European serin is a small short-tailed bird, 11–12 cm in

The Latin word "coelum", meaning "heaven" (hence the English word "celestial"), was a common medieval and early modern spelling of "caelum", which was the only form in Classical Latin. In medieval Latin, "ae" and "oe" were both pronounced [eː]; the form was also influenced by an extremely dubious etymology from Greek "koilos", "hollow". While the authorship of the "Regina Caeli" is unknown, the hymn has been traced back to the

neg: Oleic acid Oleic acid Oleic acid is a fatty acid that occurs naturally in various animal and vegetable fats and oils. It is an odorless, colorless oil, although commercial samples may be yellowish. In chemical terms, oleic acid is classified as a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid, abbreviated with a lipid number of 18:1 "cis"-9. It has the formula CH(CH)CH=CH(CH)COOH. The name derives from the Latin word "oleum", which means oil. It is the most common fatty acid in nature. Fatty acids (or their salts) do not often occur as such in biological systems. Instead fatty acids like oleic acid occur as their

This Latin word was borrowed from the Ancient Greek word σκίουρος, "skiouros", which means shadow-tailed, referring to the bushy appendage possessed by many of its members. The native Old English word for the squirrel, "ācweorna", survived only into Middle English (as "aquerne") before being replaced. The Old English word is of Common Germanic origin, cognates of which are still used in other Germanic languages, including the German "Eichhörnchen" (diminutive of "Eichhorn", which is not as frequently used), the Norwegian "ikorn/ekorn", the Dutch "eekhoorn", the Swedish "ekorre" and the Danish "egern". Squirrels are generally small animals,

neg: Black catbird that such distinction is warranted and the species is generally regarded as monotypic throughout its range. The genus name "Melanoptila" is a compound word created from two Greek words: "melas", meaning "black" and "ptilon", meaning "plumage". This and the "black" of the bird's common name are a straightforward reference to its general appearance. The species name "glabrirostris" is a combination of two Latin words: "glaber", meaning "smooth or hairless" and "rostris", meaning "beak" (rostrum). This is a reference to the very small rictal bristles which surround the black catbird's beak, in marked comparison to the prominent bristles found on the

In her introduction to the story, Le Guin stated "We all have forests in our minds. Forests unexplored, unending. Each of us gets lost in the forests, every night, alone." The "vegetable love" referred to in the poem from which the title is taken can be used to describe the final relationship between Osden and the planetary intelligence of World 4470. When Osden is attacked by Porlock in the planet, he transmits his fear to the planet, which amplifies it and reflects it back at him.

Hortensia is Latin in origin from the Latin word hortus meaning “garden” and hirta meaning “hairy”, essentially meaning hairy garden. The vernacular name for this species is Viburnum hirtum. While viburnum comes from a Latin origin, and means a small shrub or tree within the temperate and warm regions that bare flat or rounded clusters of white flowers. While hirtum is also Latin in origin, and means “hairy” with a thick growth. In Japan the name for this species is ko-ajisai meaning small hydrangea. Hydrangea hirta f. albiflora Hydrangea hirta f.

After beginning to see local musicians play nearby, and having a band in college, Gray was inspired

neg: Binomial nomenclature system by which species are named. Taxonomists are also concerned with classification, including its principles, procedures and rules. A complete binomial name is always treated grammatically as if it were a phrase in the Latin language (hence the common use of the term "Latin name" for a binomial name). However, the two parts of a binomial name can each be derived from a number of sources, of which Latin is only one. These include: The first part of the name, which identifies the genus, must be a word which can be treated as a Latin singular noun in the nominative

neg: Scharfenberg Castle (Palatinate) this would have been very inconvenient and full of risk due to the isolation of the castle and its distance from the town. Its name is more likely to be derived from the Latin word "munitio", which means "fortress" or "stronghold". Many other buildings in the Palatinate bear this name without having been connected with a mint. Scharfenberg Castle (Palatinate) Scharfenberg Castle (, popularly also called "Münz"), is the ruin of a medieval rock castle in the Palatine Forest in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. It is situated above the small South Palatine town of Annweiler. The hill castle lies

neg: Fundulus pulvereus amongst many others in the oceans. Its scientific name derives from the Latin word "fundus," which literally means "bottom," and many view this as ironic since the fish is a type of topminnow. However, the name was coined for a bottom species of the Atlantic coast, being the least important of the fundulus mudfish. Bayou killifish are fairly small, and only grow to a maximum length of . Given its size, the bayou killifish is fairly easy to spot in its natural environment. Living mostly in shallow waters, the male bayou killifish displays bright striped patterns of silver and olive-green,

neg: Cardium pottery Cardium pottery Cardium pottery or Cardial ware is a Neolithic decorative style that gets its name from the imprinting of the clay with the shell of the cockle, an edible marine mollusk formerly known as "Cardium edulis" (now "Cerastoderma edule"). These forms of pottery are in turn used to define the Neolithic culture which produced and spread them, mostly commonly called the "Cardial culture". The alternative name impressed ware is given by some archaeologists to define this culture, because impressions can be with sharp objects other than cockle shell, such as a nail or comb. Impressed pottery is much more

neg: Occithrissops Occithrissops Occithrissops is an extinct genus of prehistoric ray-finned fish of the Jurassic, known for its fearsome yet small appearance. The genus name of "Occithrissops" derives from the Latin word "Occi" (killing) and the Greek words "thriss" (fish) and "ṓps" (“face”). Similar in relationship to the Thrissops, it was a slightly larger predatory teleost fish with serrated pelvic fins, a cleft tail, and a bony tongue similar to the Arapaima and formerly mentioned Thrissops, bearing small teeth for catching small slippery prey like squid, invertebrates and fish. The bony tongue assisted the fish in consuming hard shelled invertebrates which included

It is widely believed that Murcia's name is derived from the Latin words of Myrtea or Murtea, meaning land of myrtle (the plant is known to grow in the general area), although it may also be a derivation of the word Murtia, which would mean Murtius Village (Murtius was a common Roman name). Other research suggests that it may owe its name to the Latin Murtae (Mulberry), which covered the regional landscape for many centuries. The Latin name eventually changed into the Arabic Mursiya, and then, Murcia. The city in its

The significant overlap in macaque and human living space has resulted in greater habitat loss, synanthropic living, and inter- and intraspecies conflicts over resources. "Macaca" comes from the Portuguese word "macaco", which was derived from "makaku", a Fiot (West African language) word ("kaku" means monkey in Fiot). The specific epithet "fascicularis" is Latin for a small band or stripe. Sir Thomas Raffles, who gave the animal its scientific name in 1821, did not specify what he meant by

It comes from the Latin word for necklace ("monile") and the Greek word for hair ("thrix"). The presentation may be of alopecia (baldness). Individuals vary in severity of symptoms. Nail deformities may also be present as well as hair follicle keratosis and follicular hyperkeratosis. Monilethrix is caused by mutations affecting the genes KRTHB1 (KRT81), KRTHB3 (KRT83), or KRTHB6 (KRT86) which code for type II hair cortex keratins. The disorder is inherited in an autosomal dominant

It continued to be minted in very small quantities, likely for ceremonial purposes, until and through the tetrarchy (293–313). The word "dēnārius" is derived from the Latin "dēnī" "containing ten", as its value was originally of 10 assēs. The word for "money" descends from it in Italian ("denaro"), Slovene ("denar"), Portuguese ("dinheiro"), and Spanish ("dinero"). Its name also survives in the

The genus name "Charadrius" is a Late Latin word for a yellowish bird mentioned in the fourth-century Vulgate. It derives from Ancient Greek "kharadrios" a bird found in ravines and river valleys ("kharadra", "ravine"). The specific " semipalmatus " is Latin and comes from "semi", "half" and "palma", "palm". Like the English name, this refers to its only partly webbed feet. This species weighs and measures in length and across the wings. Adults have a grey-brown back and wings, a white belly, and a white breast with one black

The tarsometatarsi (lower leg bones) of "Talpanas lippa" were short and stout, and the braincase shallow and wide relative to its length. It had very small orbits (eye sockets) and also very small optic foramina (holes in the skull through which the optic nerves pass as they travel from the eyes to the brain). Together, these physical characteristics show that the eyes and optic nerve of this duck were quite reduced in size, and it can be assumed that this
