I am looking for the English translation of the Spanish word RADICULAR.

I have found reticulate and I have found radicular.

I am working with texts that describe plant structures. Which would be best to use?

Closest English word might be: radicular (as you mentioned):

ra?dic?u?lar??/ræ?d?ky?l?r/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [ra-dik-yuh-ler] Show IPA Use radicular in a Sentence

–adjective 1. Botany. of or pertaining to a radicle or root.


following the thread a radicle is a:

rad?i?cle??/?ræd?k?l/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [rad-i-kuhl] Show IPA Use radicle in a Sentence

–noun 1. Botany.

a. the lower part of the axis of an embryo; the primary root.

b. a rudimentary root; radicel or rootlet.


Since Radicular is a verb in Spanish I would suggest that its translation would be to take root.
