Osteomalacia (pronounced /ˌɑstioməˈleɪʃiə/), known as rickets in children, where the epiphyseal growth plates are yet to seal (taken from the Greek word ῥάχις (rhákis), meaning “spine”), is a disorder most commonly caused by vitamin D deficiency.

Friday is the sixth day of the week. The name is derived from the Germanic Frigga the name of the Norse god Odin’s wife.
