What does CYMOID mean in Scrabble?
adjective
botany
Having the form of a cyme, a type of flower cluster.
Botanists use the term for an arrangement of flowers in which the central bloom opens first and the later ones appear on branches around it. The ending -oid means resembling, so a cymoid structure only looks like a cyme without necessarily being one. In architecture the same word can describe a shape that recalls a cyma, a wave-like moulding.
