Etymology: "Synchroflashes" is the plural of "synchroflash," a noun built from the combining form "synchro-" and "flash." The first element comes from Greek "synkhronos," meaning "at the same time," and it appears in English words such as synchronise and synchronous. Paired with "flash," the sense is simply light that goes off in unison, which matches the meaning of a set of bright bursts firing together at several points. The plural form follows ordinary English practice: one synchroflash, several synchroflashes. The word is a transparent coinage, so its parts explain its meaning without any further history.

Synonyms: synchronized flashes, simultaneous flashes
