Myochrome is a word that refers to a pigment found in muscle tissues that gives them their dark color. It is spelled using the IPA phonetic transcription system as /ˈmaɪəkrəʊm/ with the stress on the first syllable. This word is formed by combining the Greek words "myo" meaning muscle, and "chroma" meaning color. The spelling of the word is a combination of these two roots with the addition of the suffix "-chrome" meaning color.
