Hello!
I decided to remake a thread discussing linguistics, after some encouragement. This is where we talk about languages! ... Human languages, not programming languages.
As some of you may know, I'm now studying in the UK and the topic of diseases was being brought up. Now, before coming here, I had only heard the names in my own native language. However, some of these are explanatory enough, I have a feeling if I just translated them straight to English, doctors might understand what disease I'm referring to. Have a guess!
Sugar-in-urine illness
Silver scales ringworm
Joint inflammation
Old-person-crazy-dull disease/brain devolution disease
Self-shut-in disease
Love-birthing illness
Crazy dog disease
Mania-depression disease
Red eye disease
(This has to do with morphemes, loanwords, and Chinese if you guys are interested in these linguistic topics)
