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
surgeon (n.): c. 1300, sorgien, cirurgian "person who heals by manual operation on the patient," from Anglo-French surgien (13c.), from Old French surgien, cirurgien (13c.), from cirurgie "surgery," from Latin chirurgia "surgery," from Greek kheirourgia, from kheirourgos "working or done by hand," from kheir "hand" (see chiro-) + ergon "work" (see organ).
