Haemoid

/ˈhiːmɔɪd/ adjective

Definition

Resembling blood or having characteristics similar to blood in appearance or composition.

Etymology

From Greek 'haima' (blood) + '-oid' (resembling or having the form of), a suffix widely used in scientific terminology since the 18th century to describe things that look like or are similar to other things.

Kelly Says

The '-oid' ending is science's way of saying 'looks like but isn't quite'—so haemoid means something blood-like, which is why we also use it in words like humanoid (human-like) or asteroid (star-like).
