Relating to or occurring at the peak, summit, or highest point.
From acron (Greek akron meaning peak) combined with the adjectival suffix -al, forming an adjective meaning 'of or pertaining to the peak.'
This rare adjective is the backbone for understanding how English builds medical and scientific terms—the 'acro-' prefix in thousands of words descends directly from this Greek root.
