Definition: The word "ammos" comes from Greek and means "wood". Ammos is also used in other languages such as Latin, Greek, etc. Ammos was originally a synonym for wood, but now it often refers to something similar in nature like water or air. It could be used metaphorically as well when describing an object that seems very dry or impure. In the scientific context, "ammos" is often used to describe an organism's body structure, which is composed mostly of ammos. Ammos can also refer to a certain type of water that has this characteristic. For example, an aquatic organism could be called an ammonite.
