Medical Terminology

I have learned that medical terminology is the primary base of the language used in anatomy and physiology. It is helpful to learn these terms because they might come in handy one time. It is also very wise to know some of these terms so you won't be that ignorant when it comes to some medical terms.


Medical Terminology is just like playing a game of puzzle. You put two pieces together to form another look. The same with medical terminology, you will put two words together to form a new word. For example, the word cardi-means heart + ology-means the study of = cardiology, which means the study of the heart.

Sir Manalo taught us well in this topic. Well, I don't know about others but as far as I'm concerned, everybody participated well in this topic. Because it was really an interesting topic and gave us a spark of adrenaline rush during recitations.
