English

Etymology

From Middle English cirurgical, borrowed from Middle French cirurgical, from Medieval Latin cirurgicālis, ultimately from Ancient Greek χειρουργία (kheirourgía), from χείρ (kheír, hand) + ἔργον (érgon, work). Replaced Old English Old English læċe (doctor, physician). By surface analysis, surgery +‎ -ical.
