Relating to or describing something that is voiceless or lacking speech that originates from the stomach (an archaic or rare term).
From Greek 'gastri-' (stomach) and 'legous' (speaking), possibly from 'legein' (to speak). This is an extremely rare and archaic medical/linguistic term with unclear modern usage.
This word is so obscure that it barely appears in modern medical dictionaries—it's a ghost word, kept alive mainly in historical medical texts as a reminder that many technical terms were created and abandoned!
