Application of word-formation models in medical terms fixation.

In their article the authors present goals of Latin teaching at medical faculties in Slovakia. They analyze in more details word-formation and structure of one-word medical terms from the point of view of their model teaching/learning and fixation. Presentation of the medical terms in models proved to be very effective for adult learners because they provide exact and easy-to-memorize scheme mechanisms that can be analogically applied in the production/manipulation and fixation of a whole range of medical terms. In conclusion several examples--excercises are presented to illustrate their use in teaching practice. (Fig. 1, Ref. 7.).
