Cunei

/kju'neɪaɪ/ noun

Definition

Plural of cuneus; multiple wedge-shaped structures, particularly in anatomy.

Etymology

The Latin plural form of 'cuneus,' preserving the classical Latin ending '-i' used in anatomical and medical nomenclature.

Kelly Says

Medical Latin plurals like 'cunei' instead of 'cuneuses' remind us that medicine speaks an ancient language—literally using 2,000-year-old Roman grammar!
