Hi

I remember one someone listing a website that has med school pneumonics on it. Does anyone happen to know what the site address is?

Thanks so much in advance

ummm...well first, they are mnemonics. "pneu-" has to do with air, "mne-" is memory as in Mnemosune the goddess of memory and mother of the Muses.

all my Classics-babble aside...here's the link...www.medicalmnemonics.com 😀

I'm so glad I'm not the only one annoyed by that particular spelling error. But I think the goddess's name is spelled "Mnemosyne." At least, that's how I've seen it written. (I was obsessed with Greek mythology back in elementary school, and apparently those neurons haven't been sacrificed to Robbins Path, 7/ed yet. It also annoys me that we have streets here named after the muses, and EVERYONE mispronounces the names. 😡 )

[Discobolus]

This one really is about pneumonics 😀

Oh what you can find with Google.

I thought someone wanted a lung website. Samoa's right 😉 mnemosyne. Hence mnemonics. You have muse street names? COOL! I like calliope. Do you have terpsichore?! That would be so cool! Me: "I live on Terpsichore Lane." Mailman: WTF?

 

[Samoa]

Yeah, we have Calliope, Terpsichore, and all the rest as well. Oh, and apparently we can neither pronounce NOR spell them correctly here, because one street is "Polymnia" rather than Polyhymnia. Every time I drive past that neighborhood, I think it's a shame that such a run-down area has such cool street names.

Yes, we also get robbed in that neighborhood. I stay about 10 blocks off Polymnia. 😛

My personal favorite is "Tchopitoulas" or whatever.

Chipotle?

 

[Samoa]

Tchoupitoulas, or just Chop for short. Actually, what I meant was it's a shame that an area with such cool street names is so run down...the way I wrote it looks like I meant "what a waste of cool street names"

Ancient Greek didn't have the letter "y", so the "y"s we see in Greek words were actually spelled with "u", e.g. polu --> poly; Mnemosune --> Mnemosyne.

I clicked on this thread looking for info on pneumonia! Well, not really.

Cool. Thanks for the correction!

Exactly! I was just going to post this as well.
Thanks for the support!
