esperma
/esˈpeɾma/ · B2 · noun
sperm
🐋 esperma ≈ sperm; spermaceti comes from the sperm whale's head
Esperma is a near-twin of English sperm, both from Greek sperma, seed. The spermaceti sense links to the sperm whale (cachalote), whose head holds the waxy substance once mistaken for the whale's seed.
