spinous
Spinous is a formal, technical term used almost exclusively in scientific, medical, or academic contexts. While it is a synonym for "spiny," it carries a clinical or descriptive precision that "spiny" lacks. In everyday conversation, a native speaker would describe a cactus as "spiny" or "thorny," but a botanist would describe it as "spinous" in a research paper.
In anatomy, the term is highly specific. It refers to structures that resemble a spine or a thorn, most notably the "spinous process" of a vertebra. In this context, it does not imply something that is sharp or prickly to the touch, but rather a structural projection of bone.
Avoid using "spinous" in casual settings, as it can sound overly academic or pretentious. Use it when writing technical reports, medical charts, or biological descriptions where precise terminology is required.
