Definition of nasal

nasaladjective

mũi

/ˈneɪzl//ˈneɪzl/

The word "nasal" has its roots in Latin. The Latin word "nasus" means "nose," and it is the source of the word "nasal." In Latin, the suffix "-al" is used to form adjectives that denote a relation to or a connection with the noun the suffix is attached to. Therefore, "nasal" literally means "pertaining to the nose." In English, the word "nasal" was borrowed from Old French, which derived it from the Latin "nasus." The word has been used in English since the 14th century to describe something that is related to or affects the nose, such as nasal cavities, nasal passages, or nasal sounds in speech.
