Many of these words are not translated to English. It’s because they are
the names of conditions (inflammations, tumours or deg. diseases ! see
the presentations!!). If you have such word, please use descriptive
translation for purposes of final exam. You need to be able to explain
what each word means by dividing the word into the parts. The words
where you are supposed to use the descriptive translation are marked
with cursive letters.
