Etymology of LEPRY

The word "leprosy" is derived from the Ancient Greek word "lepra", which means "scaly" or "scaly disease". In turn, "lepra" is believed to have originated from the Greek verb "lepein", meaning "to peel". This originally denoted a type of skin disease characterized by scales or peeling, which we now refer to as leprosy.
