The word 'muscle' is derived from the Latin musculus, diminutive of mus, which means 'mouse'.
...as it was thought that their form was often mouse-like in appearance.
It is questionable if 'hamstring' is derived from hamsters but we shall make inquiries.
maybe.

It's truly wonderful and inspiring to see your artwork. The consistency in your weekly practice and blog posting is a lesson for all who wish to attain professional status. I enjoyed looking at all the recent posts and your comments – clearly you're teaching an anatomy class! Your commentary, by focusing on body parts, made me look closely at those features, which is (of course) what you do best! Awesome, any which way you look at it!
ReplyDeleteNicely said , Mardi! I couldn't express it better.
