What is the origin of the word medical?

Answer 1

First English use from 1646, thence from French médical,that from Late Latin medicalis "of a physician," from Latin medicus "physician"

The French word comes ultimately from the Arabic = Maddacinna, it's split into 2 words, Madda = Substance and Cinna = Avicenna so it means Cenna's substance, drugs were called Cenna's substance, then eventually the word was transliterated into different European languages indicating meanings related to the field of drugs and healing, all thanks to Avicenna. Then the word took its way into latin, when the Europeans tried to shift the medical language from Arabic into Latin -which is a dead language-.

Surgery, comes from French Chirurgie, eventually from Arabic Giracha or Giragha or Giraha, remember the consonant at the end is only pronounced in Arabic . G as in Giraffe. Gurch = wound and Giracha = wounding simply.

If a dictionary starts twisting and slithering with a word origin, be sure it comes in Arabic, europeans wanted to Erase any thing related to Arabic, although Arabs didn't do so with Indians and Greeks when they translated their works.
