Nidi

/ˈnaɪdaɪ/

केंद्र/फोकस (विशेषकर संक्रमण/रोग का); घोंसले; समूह (nidus का बहुवचन)

Origin & History

From Latin “nidus” meaning “nest”; “nidi” is its plural form.

लैटिन “nidus” (अर्थ: “घोंसला”) से; “nidi” उसी का बहुवचन रूप है।

Definition

“Nidi” is the plural form of “nidus” and refers to nests (especially of insects/small animals) or, figuratively in science and medicine, to localized focal points such as a focus of infection or a cluster/aggregation (e.g., neurons).

“Nidi”, “nidus” का बहुवचन है और इसका अर्थ कीड़ों/छोटे जानवरों के घोंसले या विज्ञान/चिकित्सा में किसी स्थानीय ‘केंद्र’/‘फोकस’ से होता है—जैसे संक्रमण का केंद्र या कोशिकाओं/न्यूरॉनों का समूह।
