A rare word!
A sternumbra is a type of bone or bony structure. Specifically, it is a part of the sternum, which is the breastbone of a human or other animal. It is a small, beaked or pointed projection found at the back of the sternum.
As "sternebra" is not a word in English, I'll provide examples of the base words that can be used:
Stemage, also known as sternage, is a nautical term referring to the act of hewing (cutting) spars (beams or bars of wood) at the stern, or the rear of a ship, in order to shorten it.
The term "sternal" refers to something related to the sternum or breastbone, which is the long, flat, V-shaped bone in the middle of the chest.

Therefore their chest and front is usually the contacting body part involved at the bottom.<br><br>Over all the meaning of the word sternal is directly or indirectly relative to the chest area, combining with various anatomical meanings of its different parts e.g. manubrium, body of the sternum.
I couldn't find any definition for the word "sternebrae". It's possible that it's a misspelling or a non-standard term. If you can provide more context or information about where you encountered this word, I may be able to help you better.

Referring to the sternocleidomastoid muscle, which is a large, strap-like muscle that runs from the sternum (breastbone) to the mastoid process of the temporal bone in the skull, playing a crucial role in movements such as rotating the head and tilting it to the side. The name itself is derived from the Greek words "sternon" meaning breastbone, "cleis," meaning clavicle, and "mastoid," meaning distant from the ear.
