prothesisn.

Brit. /ˈprɒθᵻsɪs/, U.S. /ˈprɑθəsəs/

Etymology: < post-classical Latin prothesis addition of a letter or syllable, usually at the beginning of a word (from 3rd cent. in grammarians) and its etymon ancient Greek πρόθεσις action of placing before or in public, in Hellenistic Greek also offering (as in the phrase οἱ ἄρτοι τῆς προθέσεως the showbread (Septuagint and New Testament)), prefixing or placing first (in grammarians), in Byzantine Greek also the placing of the elements upon the sacred table, a credence-table, the place where the consecration begins < προ- pro- prefix2 + θέσις placing (see thesis n.), after προτιθέναι to place before, to set out (food, etc.). Compare French prothèse (1704 in grammatical use). In sense 3 apparently by confusion with prosthesis n. 2, probably after French prothèse in the same sense (1695 in medical use); with later use compare also Italian protesi (1835), German Prothese (1888 or earlier), etc.
