my granddaughter, B, had just been diagnosed with Pauciarticular Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis.
the paciarticular part means pauci-(few) articluar (joints)
pauci (as in paucity) has also has other meanings--like poor (with few worldly good)--pauper.
paucity is not a common word (yet not a rare one either!) and its related words --are interesting..
