Definition
Relating to or resembling the sound produced by blowing across the mouth of a bottle or amphora.
Etymology
From 'amphora' plus '-al'. Medical term from the 18th century describing characteristic breath sounds heard through a stethoscope.
Kelly Says
Doctors can diagnose lung cavities just by listening—if your breath sounds like wind whistling across an ancient bottle, they know exactly what's happening inside your chest, all thanks to this 2,000-year-old vessel shape.
