surgeon: surgeon: [14] A surgeon is etymologically someone who does ‘hand work’ – that is, a medical practitioner who performs manual operations on the body, as opposed to administering drugs. The word comes via Anglo-Norman surgien from Vulgar Latin *chirurgiānus, a derivative of Latin chirurgia ‘work of a surgeon’. This was borrowed from Greek kheirurgíā, which in turn was derived from kheirourgós ‘working by hand’, a compound noun formed from kheír ‘hand’ (source of English chiropodist [18]) and érgon ‘work’ (source of English energy).
=> chiropodist, energy, work
