Did you know?
- While a doctor might write тендинит on a chart, if you tell a Russian friend your tendons are ноют, you are personifying them as if they are whimpering or moaning in pain.
- The Russian word for tendon, 'сухожилие', is derived from the root for 'dry' (сухой), because tendons appear dry and cord-like compared to fleshy muscle.
- When describing the pain of тендинит, Russians may use the verb тянуть, which means 'to pull', creating a mental image of a taut string rather than the 'burning' sensation often described by English speakers.
