Document Summary
Iden1fy basic objec1ves to guide your study of the medical language. Divide medical words into their component parts. Learn the meanings of basic combining forms, pre xes, and su xes of the medical language. Use these combining forms, pre xes, and su xes to build medical words. Analyze words by dividing them into component parts. Relate the medical terms to the structure and func1on of the human body. Be aware of spelling and pronuncia1on problems. The root is the foundation of the word. All medical terms have one or more roots. The combining vowel, usually an o, links the root to the suffix or to another root. Combining vowel: vowel (usually o) that links the root to the su x or the root to another root and aids pronuncia1on. Combining form: combina1on of the root and the combining vowel. Hemat/o/logy root su x combining vowel hemat means blood.
