Agreed with anonymous.

However,

'Fe' is the chemical symbol for 'iron'.

'Fe' is the prefix for the Latin word 'Ferrum' , which means 'IRON'.

NB Modern science falls back on a lot of Classical Antiquiity (Latin & Greek) to produce a lot of words that are not spoken in everyday language.

So if you come accross 'horrible' looking words, research back in to Latin and Classical Greek to find their meaning.
