Word Parts 4 types of word parts Suffix- comes at the end of the word Root Word- contains the basic meaning of the term Body part Hepat – liver Combining Form- a root word with a vowel on the end so that a suffix with a consonant can be added Hepat/o- liver “o” is the most commonly used combining vowel Suffix- comes at the end of the word Usually but not always indicates procedure/condition/disorder/diseas e Plasty- surgical repair -itis- inflammation Algia- pain/suffering Prefix- comes at the beginning of the word Usually indicates location, number, or status Pre- before Peri- during Post- after

Word Parts Word Part Rules A root word canNOT stand alone A suffix must be added A vowel must be added to the root word when combining with a suffix that begins with a consonant Prefix always goes before the root word

Word Parts Rules for Using Combining Form Vowels A combining vowel is used when the suffix begins with the consonant A combining vowel is not used when the suffix begins with a vowel A combining vowel is used when two or more word roots are joined

Word Parts- Suffixes Noun endings- some suffixes change root words to nouns Cran/i- brain; cranium (-um changes the root word cran/I to a noun) “Pertaining to”- some suffixes change the root word to an adjective Card/i- heart; cardiac (-ac changes the root word card/I to an adjective) Abnormal Condition- many suffixes mean abnormal condition Gastr/o- stomach; gastrosis (-osis makes the word mean abnormal condition of the stomach) Pathology- these suffixes describe disease conditions Gastr/o- stomach; gatralgia (-algia means pain; creating the word stomach pain) Gastr/o-stomach: gastrodynia (-dynia means pain; creating the word stomach pain) Gastr/o- stomach; gastritis (-it is means inflammation; creating the word stomach inflammation) Arteri/o- artery; arteriomalacia (-malacia means abnormal softening; creating the word meaning abnormal softening of the arteries Hepat/o- liver; hepatomegaly (-megaly means enlargement; creating the word enlargement of the liver) Arteri/o- artery; arterionecorsis (-necrosis means tissue death; creating the world meaning tissue death of an artery) Arteri/o- artery; arteriosclerosis (-sclerosis means hardening; creating the word meaning hardening of the artery) Arteri/o-artery; arteriostenosis (-stenosis means narrowing; creating the word meaning narrowing of the artery)

Word Parts- Suffixes Pathology- these suffixes describe disease conditions Gastr/o- stomach; gatralgia (-algia means pain; creating the word stomach pain) Gastr/o-stomach: gastrodynia (-dynia means pain; creating the word stomach pain) Gastr/o- stomach; gastritis (-it is means inflammation; creating the word stomach inflammation) Arteri/o- artery; arteriomalacia (-malacia means abnormal softening; creating the word meaning abnormal softening of the arteries Hepat/o- liver; hepatomegaly (-megaly means enlargement; creating the word enlargement of the liver) Arteri/o- artery; arterionecorsis (-necrosis means tissue death; creating the world meaning tissue death of an artery) Arteri/o- artery; arteriosclerosis (-sclerosis means hardening; creating the word meaning hardening of the artery) Arteri/o-artery; arteriostenosis (-stenosis means narrowing; creating the word meaning narrowing of the artery)

Word Parts- Suffixes Procedures- some suffixes identify the procedure being performed Abdomin/o- abdominal; abdominocentesis (-centesis means removal of fluid) Angi/o- blood vessel; angiography (-graphy means the process of producing a picture) Angi/o- blood vessel; angiogram (-gram means picture or record) Myo- muscle; myoplasty (-plasty means surgical repair) Arthr/o- joint; arthroscopy (-scopy means visual examination) Double “R”- have two “Rs” in the suffix Hem/o- blood; hemorrhage (-rrhage means bursting forth of blood; creating the word meaning the loss of a large amount of blood) My/o- muscle; myorrhaphy (-rrhaphy means surgical suturing to close a wound; creating the word meaning suturing of a muscle) Dia- through; diarrhea (-rrhea means flow/discharge; creating the word meaning the flow through the body) My/o- muscle; myorrhexis (-rrhexis means rupture; creating the word meaning the rupture of muscle

Word Parts You can determine the meaning of a word by just knowing the meaning of the root word Separate the word in to parts prefix/root word/suffix Start at the end of the word, with the suffix, and work backward to prefix Identify the meaning of each part Determine the context of the word if the word has multiple meanings Double check in medical dictionary Remember not all medical terms are made up of word parts

Word Part Practice -centesis (removal of fluid) -itis (inflammation) Thor/a (chest) Cardi/o- heart Removal of fluid from the chest Peri- throughout Inflammation throughout the heart -megaly (enlargement) Ocular- eye Spleen/o (spleen) Intra- inside Enlarged spleen Inside the eye Thoracentesis Pericarditis Spleenomegaly Intraocular
