Title: Liquid consonant
Content: Greek word ὑγρός ("hygrós", "moist") to describe the phonemes of classical Greek. Most commentators assume that this referred to their "slippery" effect on meter in classical Greek verse when they occur as the second member of a consonant cluster. This word was calqued into Latin as "liquidus", whence it has been retained in the Western European phonetic tradition. Liquid consonant In phonetics, liquids or liquid consonants are a class of consonants consisting of lateral approximants like 'l' together with rhotics like 'r'. Liquids as a class often behave in a similar way in the phonotactics of a language: for example,

Title: Meniscus (liquid)
Content: the meniscus. This means that any instrument is calibrated for a specific liquid, usually water. Menisci are a manifestation of capillary action, by which surface adhesion pulls a liquid up to form a concave meniscus or internal cohesion pulls the liquid down to form a convex meniscus. This phenomenon is important in transpirational pull in plants. When a tube of a narrow bore, often called a capillary tube, is dipped into a liquid and the liquid wets the tube (with zero contact angle), the liquid surface inside the tube forms a concave meniscus, which is a virtually spherical surface having

Title: Totum pro parte
Content: a smaller part of the larger area than is strictly deemed correct. Examples of this include: The verb "to drink" is often used in this manner. Depending on context it can stand for the generic, standard definition "to consume a liquid" (e.g. "I'm thirsty, is there anything to drink?") or for the narrow, limited definition "to imbibe alcoholic beverages" (e.g. "He goes out to drink too often"). Also, "fluid" can be used for "liquid", as in "brake fluid" or "bodily fluid". (The presence of air, a fluid, is not wanted when there is "low fluid".) The "Internet" for the "World

Title: Meniscus (liquid)
Content: Meniscus (liquid) The meniscus (plural: "menisci", from the Greek for "crescent") is the curve in the upper surface of a liquid close to the surface of the container or another object, caused by surface tension. It can be either concave or convex, depending on the liquid and the surface. A concave meniscus occurs when the particles of the liquid are more strongly attracted to the container (adhesion) than to each other (cohesion), causing the liquid to climb the walls of the container. This occurs between water and glass. Water-based fluids like sap, honey, and milk also have a concave meniscus

Title: Rheology
Content: the aphorism of Simplicius (often attributed to Heraclitus), "panta rhei", "everything flows", and was first used to describe the flow of liquids and the deformation of solids. It applies to substances that have a complex microstructure, such as muds, sludges, suspensions, polymers and other glass formers (e.g., silicates), as well as many foods and additives, bodily fluids (e.g., blood) and other biological materials or other materials that belong to the class of soft matter such as food. Newtonian fluids can be characterized by a single coefficient of viscosity for a specific temperature. Although this viscosity will change with temperature, it

Question: What is the Latin word for 'liquid' which we use to mean the fluid produced by the tree Ficus elastica?
Answer: Latex
