different between prothesis vs aphesis
prothesis
English
Pronunciation
- (UK) IPA(key): /?p????s?s/
- (US) IPA(key): /?p????s?s/, /?p????s?s/
Etymology 1
From Late Latin prothesis, prosthesis, alteration (dropping the ‘s’) from Ancient Greek ????????? (prósthesis, “addition, augmentation”), (English prosthesis) from ?????????? (prostíth?mi, “I add”), from ???? (prós, “towards”) + ?????? (títh?mi, “I place”), from Proto-Indo-European *próti, *préti + *d?éd?eh?- (“to be putting, to be placing”).
However, often confused for a descendant of the Ancient Greek word ???????? (próthesis, “a preposing, preposition”) (without the ? (s)), which is instead the source of a different term – see alternative etymology, below.
