The learner listens to the pronunciation of medical terms using a "jukebox" to select the terms.

Lecture A: Word Roots
Lecture B: Prefixes and Suffixes

The special words doctors and nurses use can be hard to understand. You may see or hear these words at your doctor’s office, on the web, on the radio or TV, or other sources. We call these words “medspeak.”
