The object of this Dictionary is to furnish to students and practitioners of med icme a clear, concise definition of every medical term in current use in English, French, German, and Italian medical literature, including the Latin medical termin ology of all of these languages. For the more important words in English and Latin the synonyms in French, German, and Italian are given when these differ from the prime word. For English and Latin terms the pronunciation is indicated by an accented syllable, and for those English words thought to require it by a simple system of phonetic spelling. For most English and Anglicised Latin words, with the exception of names of drugs and plants, the derivation is given.
