| description | Anatomy is one of the most fundamental sciences related to medical science. Specialized
vocabularies related to this science is often made by using the vocabularies available in
Greek and Latin languages. Interestingly, many of these vocabularies have the same roots
with the vocabularies in Persian language. The current Persian language is a continuation

and the Old Persian along with the other Iranian Languages and ancient languages of India
and the ancient European languages, all of which are rooted in the more ancient language
called Indo-European languages. In the present research, seventeen fundamental words

language. The words used in this Research include the root of the names of body members
such as the head, brain, eye, mouth, etc.; as the vocabularies used for composing specialized
