# keho
## Finnish
### Etymology

Coined by Finnish linguist Hannes Teppo in 1945 in cooperation with Lääketieteen sanastolautakunta (Medical Terminology Board), as a word specifically for an alive body, as the term ruumis could (and still can) refer to an alive or a dead human body. Morphologically, kehä +‎ -o, and inspired by Estonian keha.
