I want to remember Latin relative words?

Question

1. TERES: it means rounded, such as pronator teres. Can you give me aother word which including teres /tere(te).

2. PRONATOR,meaning rotating forward,(Pro- forward, nator, rotate). Can you give me another word which including NATOR ? thanks

Thank you Susan S. but they are not what I wanted. You must give words such as:

TERES:teres major muscle, teres minor muscle,
NATOR:Coordi+nator deto+ nator,hiber-nator (but these words are not good enough, because they don't mean rotating)。

BTW,could you please tell me what hospital you are working for ? if you like to exchange something medical, my email: for2000 at yahoo.com

Answer 1

Pronator comes from the Latin verb [prono, pronare, pronavi, pronatum] which means to bow or bend forward. (these are the four principle parts of a Latin verb and show how it behaves in its various forms and uses)

we get the English words: prone, pronate from this

Teres is an adjective meaning well rounded and smooth and comes from the verb [tero terere trivi tritum] which means to rub, crush or wear out. You rub something long enough and it will eventually become smooth

an unusual English word we get from this is trite (something that is worn out is trite). Also triturate--to grind into fine particles

As with most English words from Latin, there are slight changes.

You were most likely hoping for something different. As far as other parts of the body, I do not know. All I can tell you is what the Latin means and some English words that are related to that, but sound completely different. Both medical and legal terms in Latin and Ancient Greek tend to have illogical literal meanings.

One should be careful in dividing up words such as in ordino (to set in order) and detono (to thunder down). We get the words coordinator and detonator from these, but the -tor ending is used to specify an agent as in the Latin words actor and factor. They have no connection to nator. The best English analogy I could give is comparing the words "row" and "brown" brown contains the letters of row but this is only a coincidence.

Answer 2

How about:

Tergiversatio - backwardness
Tergum- back
Terebro- to bore through
Ratiocinator- one who reasons logically

if pronator is rotating forward then
retronator is rotating back?

not sure if this is the right track or not??
Ok maybe I wasnt on the right track how about

Supinator try the website here it gives lots of information on the muscles and their movement.
