there's  a word in sanskrit for it (which I can't  remember).>>>
 
In the ancient days, premedical requirements included either
Greek or Latin (and either French or German).  I had the Latin
and French language requirements out of the way, but I took the
"remedial" course in Origin of Greek and Latin Medical Terms
anyway because I had heard the Professor Howard (also a
strong member of Grace Episcopal on-Capitol-Square, Madison)
was a great teacher.
 
He was that and more.
 
He would take terms beyond the Greek and Latin, and was always
referring to Sanskrit for comparisons.  He even got into Proto-
Indo-European, and kept us spellbound all the while.
 
As they say in the R&H song in "Oklahoma":  (S)He went about as  far
as (s)he could go!
