No, that’s the study of amphibians and reptiles. You’re thinking of horticulture

[–] [email protected] 28 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, that's the art and science of raising plants. You're thinking of hors d'oeuvres.

No, that's European cuisine. You're thinking of homesickness

[–] Frozzie 7 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

No. That's being far from home and missing it. I believe you meant homeopathy.

No, that's a medical pseudoscience. You're thinking of heliosphere

[–] germtm_ 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

you're mistaken, since that term refers to the outermost atmospheric layer of the Sun. the term you might want to use here is "histogram".

[–] Opisek 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I believe your statement might contain a slight imprecision, as a histogram is a bar graph displaying the frequency distribution of some value. Did you perhaps mean to say "homogram"?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

It seems like we ran into a misunderstanding, because a homogram is a type of poem. I believe the term you were looking for is haplotype.
