McMaster University Greek and Latin Studies


The language of anatomy is Latin. You use it constantly, even when you may think that you aren’t using it. The aim of this talk, from Latinists who teach and research anatomical Latin, is to demystify the Latin of anatomy, to show you how straightforward (and fun) it is, and to make an area of your work-life that may sometimes seem baffling more comfortable for you.
