INVESTIGATION OF THE ADJECTIVES IN TERMINOLOGIA ANATOMICA, IN TERMS RELATED TO THE NERVOUS SYSTEM AND SENSE ORGANS

Abstract

ABSTRACT Aim: Effective and correct use of terminology in anatomy education and other medical sciences is very important for healthy communication between scientists. Due to the low number of scientific studies on both medical and anatomical terminology, this study was conducted to help increase the existing knowledge in this field. Material and Method: Terminologia Anatomica, published by Thieme in 1998, was used in the study. Results: A total of 2431 terms related to the nervous system and sensory organs were analyzed, and a total of 625 different adjectives within these terms were evaluated in terms of origin, degree and form and classified into classes. A total of 492 different adjectives were included in the 1924 terms under the title of nervous system. There are 133 different adjectives in 507 terms under the title of sense organs. There are a total of 2753 adjectives in both sections we have analyzed, together with the number of repetitions. It was observed that most of these adjectives were of Latin origin, two-shaped and had a gradus positivus degree of comparison. Discussion: The data we obtained as a result of this study revealed the distribution and characteristics of adjectives in terms of origin, degree and form within the terminology. We think that our study will contribute to the development of medical terminology and will also help make the anatomy course more understandable and memorable for students.
