Hyaline

from Word of the Day · host Word of the Day

Hyaline is an adjective that means having a glassy, translucent appearance. Coming from the Greek word hualos (WHO ah lose) meaning ‘glass,’ our word of the day is used to describe something that, like glass, is transparent or see-through. The hyaline nature of the tissue made it easy for the doctors to see the problems in the artery. This is why the operation was a success.
