o'torhi'nolaryn'gologʹical AHD[-lə-rĭng'gə-lŏjʹĭ-kəl] (形容词)o'torhi'nolar'yngolʹogist n.(名词)注释- Otorhinolaryngology is the type of medical specialty that drives the layperson to despair, both of pronouncing the word properly (ō'tō-rī'nō-lăr'ĭng-gŏlʹə-jē) and of having any notion of what it means.The wordsear, nose, and throat are quite clear, however, and that is what is meant byoto-, rhino-, and laryngo-, which are the forms of Greekous, "ear,” rhis, "nose,” and larunx, "larynx or upper part of the windpipe,” respectively, when used in combination with other word forms.耳鼻喉科学是医学专业的一种,由于正确拼读(o'to-ri'no-ar'ing-gol'o-je)和知晓其含义都需有一定的专业知识,所以外行人会对其发怵。其实ear, nose 和 throat 这些词是非常容易明白的, 它们分别代表的便是oto-,rhino- 和 laryngo-, 而这些词人分别代表希腊语形式ous, “耳朵”, rhis “鼻子”,和 larunx “喉或气管上端”, 它们就以这些形式与其他单词形式构成新词
