Chapter 2, Problem 13FPW
Summary Introduction
A language which is used in the medical field to describe the human body precisely is referred to as medical terminology. The medical terms do not always follow the normal rules of pluralization as of English terms as they are derived from the Latin and Greek terms. In medical terminology, the suffixes are used to denote the singular and plural form of medical terms. The medical terminology has some guidelines for changing the medical terms from singular to plural form.
