医学词汇的四个基本组成

医学词汇的四个基本组成一、什么是医学术语?Medicalterminology is language that is used to accurately describe the human body andassociated components,conditions,processes and procedures in a science-basedmanner.It is to be used in the medical and nursing fields.【1】医学术语是一门语言,它以科学为基础的方式用来精确描述人体和与之相关的部分、条件、过程和程序。
它用于医学和护理领域。
二、学习医学术语的宗旨【2】Analyze words by dividing theminto component parts.通过划分构词成分来分析单词。
Relate the medical terms to thestructure and function of the human body.将医学术语与人体的解剖结构和功能相联系。
Be aware of spelling and pronunciationproblems.注意拼写和发音问题。
三、单词构成的常见公式词根+连接元音+后缀或词根+连接元音+词根+连接元音+后缀四、医学术语的重要成分词根(root):单词的基础(the foundation of the word)。
每个医学术语必有一个或更多。
后缀(suffix):单词的结尾(word ending)。
每个医学术语必有一个后缀。
前缀(prefix):单词的开头(word beginning)。
并非每个医学术语都有前缀。
连接元音(combining vowel):通常是o,连接词根与词缀或词根与词根。
构词成分(combining form):由词根和连接元音组成(root+combining vowel=COMBINING FORM)。

医学英语情景实用指南Section 4 The Secret to learning Medical English VocabularyUnit 1 Basic Patterns of Word Formation学习医学英语构词法是扩大医学英语词汇量最有效的方法之一。
大部分医学词汇都是词根(root/stem/base)、前缀(prefix)、后缀(suffix)和结合元音(combining vowels)的各种不同组合。
词根,也可以称作词干,是组成一个单词的最基本要素和主干,是一个单词的根本部分。
它具有确定的意义,表示一个单词的基本意思。
词根是同根词共有的可以辨认出来的部分。
有的词根可以单独作为一个词使用。
在大多数情况下,词根通过在它前后加上前缀或后缀而衍生出多种不同的派生词。
例如,nephro-和hepato都是词根,意思分别是肾脏和肝。
它们与后面括号里不同的后缀(-itis炎症,-oma瘤,-oid类似的,-pathy病,-algia 疼痛,-tomy切开术,-ectomy切除术)结合在一起,就会衍生出下面一系列不同的派生词:nephritis肾炎,nephroma肾瘤,nephroid类似肾脏的,nephropathy肾脏病,nephralgia肾痛,nephrotomy肾切开术,nephrectomy肾切除术,hepatosis肝病,hepatoma肝瘤,hepatoid 类肝的,hepatopathy肝病,hepatalgia肝痛,hepatomy肝切开术,hepatectomy肝切除术。
前缀一般置于词根或者单词的前部,具有一定的含义,起到限定词根或者单词意义的作用,它可以增加、改变或者加强一个词根或者单词的意义。
同一词根或单词前面加上不同的前缀,就可构成意义不同的新单词;而后缀则置于词根或者单词的后部,其作用是提供该词的附加意义,并确定该词的词性。
后缀一般包括名词后缀、形容词后缀、动词后缀和副词后缀等;结合元音大多数情况下为字母o,有时也用i,其作用只是连接词根与词根,或者词根与词缀。

医学英语概述资料讲解

(2)当一个名词常同时有外来复数 与英文规则复数,外来复数在正式 文体中特别是科技用语中较常见, 而英文规则复数则在日常医学英语 中更常见。
(3)有些名词变复数时,词尾字母拼 写发生变化
如 phalanx→phalanges指(趾)骨 faux →fauces 咽门
3、同一词汇,在医学英语与公共英语有 不同的涵义 cell (电池~细胞), tissue(薄绸~组织) organ(风琴~器官),delivery(投递~分娩) digest(汇编~消化), sign (记号~体征) tenderness(温柔~触痛)
THE END
结束语
谢谢大家聆听!!!
54
(2)“组合元音”分析法:是构词成分的 接合点。 最常见的元音字母是“O”。 如esophag/o/jejun/o/gastr/o/stomy 食管空肠胃吻合术。
★但要注意当后缀以元音起始 时,会省去组合元音。
如 cholecyst/ectomy 胆 囊 切 除 术,-ectomy之前省去“o”。
重音永不在最后一个音节。
(2)如果倒数第二个音节是长音, 重读在该音节上。
Acid’osis 酸中毒 Laryngotracheobronch’itis
喉气管支气管炎
(3)如果倒数第二个音节是短音, 重读音ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ则在倒数第三个音节上。
如 ’ Oviduct 输卵管
(4)有时倒数第二个音节变 短,有维持词根重音或重读 音前移这两种情况。
3、辅音字母的读音规则 (1)c 在e, ae , oe , i或y之前
读软音[s],在a , o , u或oi之前读 硬音[k]。
(2)g在e,ae,oe,i,y前读[dg],在 a,o,u,oi前读[g]。

医学英语词根词缀

The Secret to learning Medical English VocabularyBasic Patterns of Word Formation学习医学英语构词法是扩大医学英语词汇量最有效的方法之一。
大部分医学词汇都是词根(root/stem/base)、前缀(prefix)、后缀(suffix)和结合元音(combining vowels)的各种不同组合。
词根,也可以称作词干,是组成一个单词的最基本要素和主干,是一个单词的根本部分。
它具有确定的意义,表示一个单词的基本意思。
词根是同根词共有的可以辨认出来的部分。
有的词根可以单独作为一个词使用。
在大多数情况下,词根通过在它前后加上前缀或后缀而衍生出多种不同的派生词。
例如,nephro-和hepato都是词根,意思分别是肾脏和肝。
它们与后面括号里不同的后缀(-itis炎症,-oma瘤,-oid类似的,-pathy病,-algia疼痛,-tomy切开术,-ectomy切除术)结合在一起,就会衍生出下面一系列不同的派生词:nephritis肾炎,nephroma肾瘤,nephroid类似肾脏的,nephropathy肾脏病,nephralgia 肾痛,nephrotomy肾切开术,nephrectomy肾切除术,hepatosis肝病,hepatoma肝瘤,hepatoid类肝的,hepatopathy肝病,hepatalgia肝痛,hepatomy肝切开术,hepatectomy肝切除术。
前缀一般置于词根或者单词的前部,具有一定的含义,起到限定词根或者单词意义的作用,它可以增加、改变或者加强一个词根或者单词的意义。
同一词根或单词前面加上不同的前缀,就可构成意义不同的新单词;而后缀则置于词根或者单词的后部,其作用是提供该词的附加意义,并确定该词的词性。
后缀一般包括名词后缀、形容词后缀、动词后缀和副词后缀等;结合元音大多数情况下为字母o,有时也用i,其作用只是连接词根与词根,或者词根与词缀。
