Etymology of SPLENOMYELOGENOUS
The word "splenomyelogenous" is formed by combining three different roots: "spleno-", "myelo-", and "-genous".
1. "Spleno-" comes from the Greek word "splen", which means spleen. The term "splenomyelogenous" refers to something related to both the spleen and the bone marrow.
2. "Myelo-" is derived from the Greek word "myelos", which means marrow. In medical terminology, it often refers specifically to bone marrow.
3. "-Genous" is a suffix that comes from the Greek word "genos", meaning origin or source. When attached to another word as a suffix, it indicates something related to or originating from that word.
So, "splenomyelogenous" essentially means something originating from both the spleen and the bone marrow.
