Medical and Legal Terminology from Greek and Latin

This course offers a unique approach to the instruction of Classical languages, concentrating on the grammar and vocabulary of ancient Greek and Latin essential to the technical languages of many professional fields. Essentially it is two full courses intensively rolled into one: Medical Terminology and Legal Latin. The first half of the course is essentially a 6-week intensive course in Latin. It covers Latin grammar, syntax, and vocabulary essential in modern and historical jurisprudence and legal practice. The second half of the course focuses on scientific, specifically medical, terminology. Scientific terminology is created using roots fused with prefixes and suffixes borrowed primarily from Greek and Latin. Students will learn the most common prefixes, suffixes, and roots, and how they are fused together to form scientific terminology. The Medical Terminology segment of this course covers the content and material of an entire Medical Terminology course and thus fulfills such prerequisite requirement for certain health professional and graduate programs. Fall semester.
