文法句型

ov- + noun/adjective base (scientific terms)

用法筆記

The form appears as ov- before a consonant (oviparous, ovoid) and as ovi- or ovu- before certain Latin stems (oviduct, ovulate). It is not a standalone English word; it combines with other word elements to form scientific terms.

常見錯誤

The chicken laid an ov.
The chicken laid an egg.
'ov-' is a combining form, not a standalone noun; the noun form is 'ovum' (singular) or 'egg'.
