同義詞
  • micturition

    refers to the act of urinating itself, not a condition of urine; broader and less specific than -uria compounds.

文法句型

[descriptor] + -uria

用法筆記

Distinguish from sense 1 (SUBSTANCE IN URINE): sense 2 describes the overall characteristics of urination (volume, timing, pain) rather than the presence of a specific chemical. The prefix often quantifies or qualifies the urine output itself (poly- = much, olig- = little, noct- = night, dys- = painful).

❌The report said the patient has uria.
✅The report said the patient has dysuria.
💡-uria is a suffix-like combining form; a full term such as dysuria or polyuria must be used.
