tendinitis
noun/ˌtɛn.dəˈnaɪ.tɪs/
Etymology From New Latin from tendin-, stem of Medieval Latin tendo, from Late Latin tenon, from Ancient Greek τένων (ténōn, “tendon, sinew”). By surface analysis, tendon + -itis and tendo- + -itis but not actually formed in this way; similarly with tendinopathy § Etymology.
