Appendix A Pronunciation and Spelling of Terms
Found in This Book
Similar Looks and Sounds of Terms
Spelling can be tricky with some of these medical terms. Just one letter can make
a difference with certain words. For example, the terms hematoma and hepatoma
look very similar on paper, but have very different meanings. Hematoma is a mass
or collection of blood, whereas hepatoma is a tumor on the liver. Other terms may
be pronounced exactly the same and have completely different meanings.
For example, the ilium is a part of the pelvis and the ileum is the third part of the
small intestine. Also be aware of terms with similar meanings. For example, the
difference between a urethra and ureters. The urethra is a tube that transports
urine from the urinary bladder to the outside of the body. The ureters are tubes
that transport urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder.
Spelling plays an important role in good record keeping. When hospitals are
reviewed for accreditation, patient records are checked for detail and accuracy.
Spelling is a part of that accuracy. In essence, you’re writing in a legal document
when you are writing in a patient file.
As a reminder, take advantage of the pronunciation section of the website that
accompanies this book (www.wiley.com/go/taibo/terminology) which allows you
to listen to how each term is pronounced.
Pronunciation of Certain Vowels
The symbols ˇ and ˉ above certain vowels help you sound out the vowels. For
example, if the vowel has ˉ above it, the vowel sounds like the “capital form”
or “long form” of itself. If the vowel has the ˇ above it, then it sounds like its
“lowercase form” or “short form.”

Pronunciation of Certain Consonants
Consonants can have different sounds depending on what other letters they are
attached to in a term. When viewing the pronunciation of terms pay attention
to how the sounds of the consonants change in each term.
Rules for Plurals
There will always be exceptions to the following rules, but in general, these rules
will apply:
Rule 1: If a word ends with “a,” then add an “e” to make it plural. For example,
the plural form of vertebra is vertebrae. The plural form of larva is larvae.
Rule 2: If a word ends with “um,” then the plural form ends with an “a” instead
of “um.” For example, the plural form for bacterium is bacteria.
Rule 3: If a word ends with “is,” then the plural form will end with “es.” For example,
the plural form of diagnosis is diagnoses. The plural form of metastasis is
metastases.
Rule 4: If a word ends with “on,” then the plural form will end with “a.”
For example, the plural form of ganglion is ganglia.
Rule 5: If a word ends with “ix” or “ex,” then its plural form will end with “ices.”
For example, the plural form of index is indices.
Rule 6: If a word ends with “us,” then its plural form will end with “i.” For example,
the plural form of nucleus is nuclei.
