"prothesis" meaning in All languages combined

See prothesis on Wiktionary

Noun [English]

IPA: /ˈpɹɒθəsɪs/ [UK], /ˈpɹɔθəsɪs/ [US], /ˈpɹɑθəsɪs/ [US] Forms: protheses [plural]
Etymology: From Late Latin prothesis, prosthesis, alteration (dropping the ‘s’) from Ancient Greek πρόσθεσις (prósthesis, “addition, augmentation”), (English prosthesis) from προστίθημι (prostíthēmi, “I add”), from πρός (prós, “towards”) + τίθημι (títhēmi, “I place”), from Proto-Indo-European *próti, *préti + *dʰédʰeh₁- (“to be putting, to be placing”). However, often confused for a descendant of the Ancient Greek word πρόθεσις (próthesis, “a preposing, preposition”) (without the σ (s)), which is instead the source of a different term – see alternative etymology, below.
