If you consult a major English dictionary, you are likely to find that symplectic is the name of a bone in a fish's head. However ... the word symplectic in mathematics was coined by Weyl who substituted the Latin root incomplex by the corresponding Greek root, in order to label the symplectic group.https://mathoverflow.net/questions/45159/what-does-the-word-symplectic-mean#:~:text=If%20you%20consult%20a%20major,to%20label%20the%20symplectic%20group.
