fractura
/fɾaɡˈtuɾa/ · B1 · noun · f
fracture
🦴 fractura = fracture; same Latin root as fraction and fragile
From Latin fractura, from frangere, to break. It is a near-twin of English fracture with a final -a, which is why it is feminine: la fractura. The c is softened in speech, so it comes out close to frag-TOO-ra.
