Med students, pull out your flashcards! Kyle and Emily are crafting a delicate weave of medical terms, biological networks, and the word retiform.
Our hosts discuss how the usage of the word retiform is a bit extended from its etymological roots. Emily does her best to recall the anatomy of the eye, and Kyle takes us through all manner of nets and networks that appear in biology.
But it’s not all medical talk today. Our hosts also chat about how retiform can be applied in places one might not expect: including a well-crafted spiderweb, an old-fashioned handbag, and even the legendary Don Juan.
Join us every week as we explore the fascinating origins and meanings of words, uncovering the hidden stories behind language and how it evolves over time, for language enthusiasts and etymology buffs alike.
