Search for: [Abstract = "The present article focuses on English medical terminology and its easily noticeable division into formal and informal terms.

Informal terms are predominantly of Anglo\-Saxon, French, Germanic or Scandinavian origins, while formal terms are mainly borrowings from Latin and Greek."]
