用法筆記

Uncountable; never used with 'a' or in the plural. Frequently appears in compounds such as 'lymph node', 'lymph vessel', and 'lymph gland', where it names the system that moves the fluid rather than the fluid itself.

常見錯誤

The doctor took a lymph from her arm.
The doctor took a sample of lymph from her arm.
'lymph' alone names a fluid that cannot be counted; use 'a sample of lymph' or refer to a 'lymph node' instead.
