Cíle předmětu
General characteristics of the subject: Greek-Latin medical terminology is essential means for understanding the professional medical terminology. The curriculum conveys both theoretical and practical concepts used in medical documentation and is conceived as a preparatory course sui generis, introducing the students into the study of medicine by means of its language. In the first semester, the focus is put on the understanding of anatomical nomecature and simple authentic diagnoses, mostly from traumatology.
The content of the course is fully derived from the actual needs of the professional practice. In the first place, it provides students with instruction on how to apply Latin and/or Greek quickly and purposefully, ie. the student are required to master the semantic aspect of terms, the grammatical forms and their functions. It also systematically develops student´s ability to indepedently analyze medical terms, solve terminological problems, and form medical terms. Last but not least, the course also introduces the wider historical and linguistic foundations of medical terminology as well as its general theoretical contexts.
