INTRODUCTION

This book is meant for use with The Anatomy of Medical Terminology (Stiles and Russell,
Radix Antiqua, 2017; subsequently referred to as AMT). While some students may be able
to learn the combining forms with their definitions, as presented in AMT, by some feat
of brute memorization, experience shows that most of us will learn them best by doing a
large number of repetitive exercises. This observation also holds true for the learning of the
principles by which combinations of those combining forms (that is, the complex words
and phrases of contemporary Medical Terminology) are to be translated.
Therefore, each chapter of AMT is represented here by a corresponding Workbook chapter
containing three main kinds of practice exercises. The value of doing these thoroughly while
studying the AMT chapter in question cannot be overstated, as they are designed so that
each set of exercises gives not only practice with the forms learned in that chapter but also
a review of much of what has been learned in previous chapters. Note that an Answer Key is
provided for each set of exercises.
Chapter 1 is anomalous, but generally speaking each Workbook chapter consists of the
following exercise types.
Preliminary Exercises
Designed to help students get started, these exercises are perhaps the most helpful for the
elementary project of memorizing individual combining forms and their translations. They
include a variety of subtypes, most of which are also well-represented in the course’s online
component.

2 Introduction

Latin Exercises
These exercises, to be tackled when students are fairly comfortable with the previous
set, give practice with the Latin words and two types of Latin phrases that are found in
contemporary Medical Terminology. In addition, each of these sets provides still more
practice and review of many of the combining forms presented in the corresponding AMT
chapter.
Translation Exercises
Finally, each chapter of the Workbook has a comprehensive set of translation exercises,
designed not only to reinforce memorization of the individual combining forms but also—
and especially—to give plenty of practice in using the basic principles of whole-word
translation. In many ways these are the core of the Workbook, and they have been used in
this form since the first edition of AMT appeared in 1993. Note that the numbering of these
exercises is carefully keyed to that of the corresponding AMT chapter, for ease of reference.
Additional practice is readily available. One option is to do the regular exercises
“backwards;” for example, translate the definitions generated by doing the regular
translation exercises (once they have been checked) back into Medical Terminology.
Because of the large number of synonymous forms, however, care must always be taken to
ensure that the newly generated term is at least a plausible one, if it differs from the term
given in the original exercise.
As an advanced exercise on the other hand, any word in the regular exercises can be looked
up in a large medical dictionary, and the definition found there can be compared to the
one generated by the formulaic conventions of AMT. Imaginative students (particularly
those with a sense of humor) can also invent words (of varying degrees of plausibility) and
challenge their colleagues to translate them; if this is done in pairs or small groups it will
obviously further facilitate memorization of the combining forms.
In addition, the Workbook has an Appendix containing two recent final exams (also with
Answer Keys), one used at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon and the other used
at McMaster University in Hamilton. Each has both drawbacks and advantages from a
tester’s point of view, but together they represent the two main types of examination most
appropriate for testing knowledge of this material. Answers to a selection of similar final
exam questions are also discussed here.
Finally, we would like to thank the students whose use of these exercises in various
iterations have helped us to shape them into their present form; and we are especially
grateful to Kyle McLeister for his help in the making of this book.

1.7 A SHORT HISTORY OF BLURGIATICS


(Numerically keyed to Part A in the textbook.)
Divide and translate all the words in this story which appear in bold type.
As is now well known, Martians at birth are inanimate objects which can be said to begin life
only when some of their components begin to blurgize. The blurgal tissues thus produced
quickly differentiate into blurgic organs, blurgous fluids, blurgary or blurgar appendages,
miscellaneous blurgan, blurgine and blurgac body parts and—most remarkably of all—
blurgoid cell-like structures. (1-10)
Unfortunately, the first Martian with whom we came into contact immediately exploded.
This problem was tentatively, if a bit uselessly, diagnosed as blurgia; the blurgist of course
had only a few small scraps of blurgin to work with. The second Martian also exploded,
but slightly more slowly, so that it was possible to observe that he was suffering (for a
nanosecond or two) from a rare form of blurgitis which quickly blossomed (so to speak)
into full-scale blurgorrhexis; at least one example of blurgoschisis may have occurred
during this process, but this (extremely) transient case of blurgoschistiasis has not been
confirmed. If this line of research had turned out to be productive, it may have someday
been possible to modify our initial diagnosis: some form of blurgoclastic blurgosis may be
the real culprit. (11-19)
It was soon proposed that whatever the underlying blurgopathy, nothing can very
satisfactorily explode without undergoing a (rapid) burst (so to speak) of expansion, so that
some degree of blurgomegaly might be involved. The extreme expedient of blurgophagy
14  Chapter 1: Terminations

(only resorted to when one of us claimed that our ancient “Father of Medicine” had himself
sometimes tasted the excrement of his patients) led nowhere, as after only a mouthful or
two of exploded Martian the blurgophagist turned green, vomited, and refused to discuss
what in a later unguarded moment he did call a “really weird trip.” (20-22)
After the explosion of the third, fourth and fifth Martians, enough material was finally
gathered that two teams were able to independently pursue promising lines of research
based on the hope that at least one Martian might be able to be put together out of the (now
rather more plentiful) bits of the first five. Sad to say, neither simulations of blurgogenesis
nor optimizations of the necessary conditions for blurgopoiesis resulted in objects which
truly exhibited blurgokinesis. (Initially exciting blurgokinetoid quiverings were later
discovered to be due to some of the bits having been too long out of the fridge.) (23-25)
The new objects, however, at least did not explode. Thus they could be subjected to various
forms of blurgokinetogenesis, most promisingly by the application (by means of electric
shock) of blurgalgia and blurgodynia on alternate days. This approach was hampered by
the dawning realization that none of us even knew at that time whether the reconstituted
objects were themselves blurgs, merely blurgary or not even remotely blurganoid—
which brought us pretty close to back to the beginning. “If only we could find a working
blurgalizin or even some definite, indisputable blurgicoidous material of any kind to work
on!”, was our cry, and wilder and wilder theories ran amok. Some of us began to darkly
mutter about how the rest were suffering from “blurgistoplegia.” The real problem, of
course, was again lack of refrigeration: blurgopenia was setting in, leaving us with more and
more theories and less and less actual stuff to theorize about. (26-29; and review)
Finally we got a sixth Martian, and for unknown reasons, this one did not explode, exactly.
It did, however, suffer from apparent blurgalorrhagia, occasional blurgicomalacia, and
(in very general terms) systemic blurgosonecrosis; this was often preceded (depending
upon the apparent system) by blurgarostenosis, blurganosclerosis, or blurgacoptotic
blurgoidagroidia. When the blurgorrhagic symptoms let up, blurgorrhea was sometimes
seen. Occasional blurgedema resulted in blurgocele (something I hope you never have to
see). Blurgoliths exuded during blurgedematocele were either the result or the cause of
blurgospasticoid blurgismus. (30-42)
The seventh Martian lived even longer (nearly two minutes), and so we were able to observe
slower processes of decay. Blurgectopia, for example, seemed to either cause or be caused
by blurgectasia, so that we were again divided into two camps (“blurgistoschisis!”, cried the
wits), one diagnosing blurgectopic blurgectasia and the other swearing by blurgectatic
blurgectopia. Normal (we guessed) blurgoplasia (sometimes of course confused with
blurgopoiesis) was observed in the first minute or so, but it was followed in every case by
blurgodysplasia; similarly, apparently normal blurgotrophy gave way to various forms
of blurgodystrophy and blurgatrophy (although this last problem may well have only
Exercises for Chapter 1  15

been blurgasthenia). But the most exciting result of the seventh Martian was that, because
he didn’t explode at all, we were able to harvest what we were pretty sure were whole
blurgs and even a litre or so of pure blurg (we hoped). With this material, the possibility of
blurgotherapy seemed assured. (43-51)
But the eighth and ninth Martians exploded again (one quickly, one slowly—don’t ask) and
then there were no Martians at all for a while. But the tenth Martian seemed to be fading
even more slowly than the seventh, so we fed him bits of (putative) blurg and (putative)
blurgal bits and injected it or them with blurgotherapeutic blurgins—by the sixth minute
we could confidently say that the slow dying had become even more slow and that the
field of blurgiatry had truly begun! “Blurgonecrotostasis at Last” was the blogline; and
“Blurgoplastic Blurgicocentesis Comes of Age.” Blurgorrhaphic Clinics sprang up in
anticipation, and Learned Chairs in Blurgotomy, Blurgectomy and Blurgostomy were
confidently endowed in the expectation of a population explosion of (non-exploding, yet
sick) patients. Blurgics was becoming a respectable calling, and blurgologists, previously
scarce, were a dime a dozen. (52-61)
The next dozen Martians, of course, exploded upon arrival. Undaunted, we pioneers
persevered. Upon the surviving Martian and their child (if only that were the right word)
we performed blurgaloscopies and blurgotometries and even blurgonecrotographies.
Where blurgalopexy was the unfortunate result of our blurgopexies, to avoid the old
trouble of rapid blurgolysis we figured out that a timely blurgosolysis on just the right
blurgic tissues might do the trick; and when a single nth-to-the-nth-plus-three Martian
(apparently the “sister” of the aforementioned “child”) survived into the eleventh minute,
the whole new field of blurgotropism was opened up by researchers who inadvertently
discovered blurgophages living on the improperly sanitized blades of blurgotomes,
blurgectomes and blurgostomes (sort of like paper-punchers, but only sort of ). Frantic
work with blurgoscopes followed, and when we finally got some more non-exploding (but
satisfactorily sick) Martians, we discovered a whole range of blurgoclasts, blurgostats and
(finally!) a nearly limitless set of blurgalopathogens. Though blurgopaths remained in
short(lived) supply, our blurgographs lit up again, and our computers crashed from the
sheer mass of blurgograms; and the blurgometers hummed! (62-78)
Unfortunately (and this again is well known, now; which didn’t help much then!), as
time passed and a Martian or six—it was getting harder to tell—survived for nearly half
an hour, we began to realize that the blurgotogens were seriously outnumbering the
blurgiatrogens, that blurgonecrotogenic blurgoses were becoming far more common
than blurgiatrogenous cures, that, in short, more and more Martians (or Martian) were (or
was) exploding than ever before, and in ever fewer minutes; and finally we had to concede
that whatever blurgotropic therapies we tried turned into blurgotropic disasters. It was
when we Venusians (or we the Venusian) began to explode too that we began to compose
this hastily assembled “Discharge Summary” in the fond hope that a (putative) life form
16  Chapter 1: Terminations

from the third planet may someday visit, and, seeing a blurgus here, a blurga there, the
odd blurgum lying under a pathetic blurgon, might amid the whole blurgeous mess find
in this document something useful, just before he, she, it (or they) also begins (or begin)
exploding. (79-86)
All that remains now is to describe and define in detail the essential nature of blurg itself,
the fascinating process called blurgization, and the resulting blu. . .
