MORPHEMIC-STRUCTURAL, SEMANTIC, NOSOLOGICAL, AND SYNTACTIC FEATURES OF AFFIXATIONAL DERIVATION IN CLINICAL TERMINOLOGY (BASED ON GREEK-LATIN COMPONENTS)

This article provides an in-depth analysis of the morphemic-structural, semantic, nosological, and syntactic features of affixational derivation (word formation through prefixes and suffixes) in clinical terminology, with a focus on Greek-Latin components. Greek clinical and Latin anatomical elements, widely used in medical education in Uzbekistan, are examined in terms of their morphemic composition, meaning modification, role in disease classification, and syntactic integration. The study demonstrates that affixational derivation is a primary tool in clinical terminology and plays a crucial role in international nosological classification and the syntactic structure of clinical texts. From a practical medical perspective, the article highlights the importance of Greek-Latin morphemes in diagnostic, pathogenetic, therapeutic, and documentation processes.
