Medical English that is there when you need it
Clinical vocabulary in flashcards with pronunciation and examples in context: anatomy, symptoms, diagnoses, procedures and talking to patients. Spaced repetition plans the reviews for you.
A separate app with its own subscription — onemoreword Premium does not unlock it. See Premium plans
What a card covers
Shortness of breath
The phrase patients use. The chart says dyspnoea — you need both.
To take a history
A fixed collocation. Learning it as a phrase saves you from translating it word by word.
Discharge summary
The document you write when a patient leaves the ward.
Who it is for
Anyone who already knows the medicine and needs the English for it.
Nurses and paramedics
Ward vocabulary, handover phrases and the words patients actually use for their symptoms.
Doctors
Diagnoses, procedures and drug groups, plus the difference between chart language and conversation.
Medical students
Anatomy, physiology and clinical terms, grouped the way a course introduces them.
Working abroad
Vocabulary for language requirements and interviews when you move your practice to an English-speaking country.
Clinical areas covered
From body parts to hospital paperwork. Every term comes with a translation, pronunciation and an example sentence from a clinical context.
Anatomy and body parts
Symptoms and complaints
Diagnoses and conditions
Procedures and equipment
Medication and dosage
Talking to patients
Built for terms you cannot afford to forget
Medical vocabulary is long, close-sounding and often unused until the moment it matters. Reviews are timed to the forgetting curve rather than to how much free time you had last week.
- Pronunciation on every card — clinical terms get mispronounced long before they get misused.
- Example sentences from clinical context, not from generic textbook English.
- Illustrations tie a term to an image instead of to another word.
- Short sessions fit between shifts, and progress carries over.
Questions about the medical app
onemoreword teaches general English vocabulary. onemoreword Medical covers clinical language only — anatomy, symptoms, diagnoses, procedures and patient communication. Separate apps, separate content, separate subscriptions.
No. The two subscriptions are independent, and a subscription to one app does not unlock the other. The prices are currently the same for both.
It helps. The app teaches the English, not the medicine, so it assumes you already know what the terms mean in your own language.
On Google Play. Other stores will appear here as the listings go live.
