The ability to sense or feel cold; cold sensation or sensitivity to low temperatures.
From Greek 'kryos' (cold) plus 'aesthesia' (sensation, from 'aisthanesthai' meaning to perceive). Medical terminology combining ancient Greek roots.
The Greek 'kryos' also gives us 'cryogenics' and 'cryo-surgery'—all modern cold-based technologies trace back to the ancient Greek word for ice and freezing.
