I tried to guess what it means and then looked it up; I had the right idea, but not the exact definition.  "Somato-," of course, refers to the shape of the body.  So a "somatotype" is a fancy way of saying body type--ectomorph, endomorph, and so on.  It's the second part I didn't know.

"vadose"



"Vadose"
The vadose zone, also termed the unsaturated zone, is the portion of Earth between the land surface and the water table, and is thus not considered groundwater ("vadose" is Latin for "shallow"). It comprises the unsaturated portion of the soil, regolith or bedrock, as well as the unsaturated portion of the capillary fringe above the water table. The pore spaces in the vadose zone are subject to atmospheric pressure, and so the water is held to the regolith and rock by adhesion (funiculary groundwater), and in pore spaces by capillary action (capillary groundwater). If the vadose zone envelops soil, the water contained therein is termed soil moisture.
 
New word:
 
""lymphan"

It's the plural of "varium," meaning "various."  "Varia" just means a bunch of assorted things.
