vatāxhaving a deformity of the feetvatiusbent outwardऊरुcalf
nounmasculinean-stemcalfmuscleMaybe from Proto-Indo-European *uH-two- from a root Proto-Indo-European *weH-, from which Sanskrit ऊरु (ūrú-, ‘calf’) could also be derived. Probably not related to Latin vatius (‘bent outward’) and Latin vatāx (‘having a deformity of the feet’), as the connection between “calf” and “bend” is weak.
