EN: orthopedic
This is the less common spelling variant. It's like the difference between 'color' and 'colour'. Still means the same thing. Think of that special, expensive mattress you buy for your back pain, or the weird-looking shoes the doctor tells you to wear. If it's for your bones, joints, or muscles, it's **ortopedik**.
From Spanish 'ortopédico'.
The spelling 'ortopediko' is more common and aligned with modern Filipino orthography.
