arteriac

Of or pertaining to the windpipe - It appears in many a Latin text, but English seems hard to find. It would certainly be obsolete, at any rate Thyself be knowne (talk) 07:25, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

"Of or pertaining to arteries" also seems to exist, of which I managed to find two quotes, see Citations:arteriac.

n.b. most if not all Latin hits would be scannos of arteriae, arteriæ. 蒼鳥 _{fawk. tell me if i did anything wrong.} 14:39, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

@Fawknerfawk: I added a third citation for that sense, which uses “arteriac oxygen tension” instead of the standard “arterial oxygen tension”. Would this be a misspelling?—although not only the spelling is different; at least nonstandard. Compare castellary instead of the standard castellany. J3133 (talk) 15:33, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

thank you! imo not a misspelling—probably nonstandard (and/or dated) though, yeah. I've added the arteries sense to the entry. 蒼鳥 _{fawk. tell me if i did anything wrong.} 08:13, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
