Danh từ
Số nhiều: sternothyroids

This term is a specialized anatomical descriptor used primarily in medical, surgical, and biological contexts. It describes a specific muscle based on its points of origin and insertion: the sternum and the thyroid cartilage. Because it refers to a specific anatomical structure, it is used with a high degree of precision and lacks a casual or metaphorical equivalent.

In clinical documentation, it is often grouped with other infrahyoid muscles. While the term is technically countable, it is almost always used in the singular when referring to the muscle as a functional unit or in the plural when discussing the bilateral pair of muscles found on both sides of the neck.
