menstrual[menstrual 词源字典]

menstrual: [14] Etymologically, menstrual means ‘monthly’. It comes from Latin mēnstruālis, an adjective derived from mēnsis ‘month’ (a close relative of English month). From the same source comes menses [16], originally the plural of Latin mēnsis, and menopause [19] is based on the related Greek word for ‘month’, mén. Their gynaecological application comes, of course, from the ‘monthly’ flow of blood from the uterus.
