SPLAGCHNOPHAGŌN, splagchnophagōn

Sounds Like: splang-khno-fa-GOHN

Translations: eating entrails, eating intestines, eating bowels, eating human flesh, eating human entrails, eating human intestines, eating human bowels

From the root: ΣΠΛΑΓΧΝΟΝ, ΦΑΓΩ

Part of Speech: Adjective

Explanation: This is a compound adjective formed from 'σπλάγχνον' (splagchnon), meaning 'entrails' or 'bowels' (and by extension, 'affections' or 'compassion'), and 'φάγω' (phago), meaning 'to eat'. Therefore, it literally means 'eating entrails' or 'bowel-eating'. In a broader sense, especially when referring to humans, it can imply cannibalism or the consumption of human flesh, particularly the internal organs. It describes someone who consumes such things.

Inflection: Genitive, Plural, Masculine or Feminine or Neuter
