This problem is frequently seen among first-year medical students. Individuals pursuing a medical education can solve this problem by using old familiar words to learn new ones. Terms encountered for the first time can be learned by using the meaning, connotation and simulation properties of previously known terms. Such a learning method will be more permanent as well as more effective. Learning medical terms using previously known words can be utilized as a new method in educational life. In this study, we aimed to present this new method with examples to contribute toward a more effective method of teaching medical terms.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessConnotationMedical termsSimulationArticle562971002-s2.0-84881049451Q4
