Can someone make a list with some basic medical terms in german?

This sounds like a great idea! I'm quite busy at the moment, and I'm also not a doctor, but will have a think and try and start something in the next week. Thanks for using Memrise!! Will post here when I've started and finished the list. Cheers

Well, I forgot that I posted this question here.

I've done a Basic course for now: http://www.memrise.com/set/10018480/basic-german-medical-terminology/

I think it's pretty cool. But it has no sounds and any other info, but I don't think it really needs them.

You're studying medicine as well?

Native German doc here. No time to do a list. But happy to review stuff you have doubts about.

Looked at the basic terminology. Nothing wrong there but in the first ten words very little of practical use. If you want to use latinised words like hypotension, that is internationally understood by medical people, if need be you can write it out. If you want everyday use, hypotension would commonly be called "niedriger Blutdruck" = low blood pressure.

Thank you sir. I didn't really look at every word. I haven't reached such a high level that I can learn these terms yet.

Appreciate your help!

Hi Christian

Glad to help. If there is a way that I can look at your list, which I'm sure is ok, but might benefit for a bit of tweaking, please let me know. It costs a lot of time to go through them as the taught course. Cheers U
