Etymology of ZOOTOMICAL

The word "zootomical" is derived from the combination of two Greek words: "zoo" and "tomos".

The term "zoo" (ζῷον - zoon) means "animal" in Greek. It is commonly used as a prefix in words related to animals, such as "zoology" (the study of animals) and "zoological" (pertaining to animals).

The second part of "zootomical" comes from the Greek word "tomos" (τομοσ), which means "cut" or "slice". It is derived from the verb "temnein", meaning "to cut". The word "tomos" is often used to describe dissection or the process of cutting into biological structures in order to study their anatomical details.
