Surface Forms
Morphology
glycine = glyc + ine
Formed from the combining form 'glyc-' (not a standalone English word) plus the chemical suffix '-ine'; an average B1 learner cannot derive 'a specific amino acid' from these parts.
Etymology
Glycine comes from the Greek word glykys meaning 'sweet', because early chemists noticed this amino acid has a sweet taste, so the name helps you remember this simple amino acid found in many proteins.
