Efforts to prepare inter-Korea medical consolidation: compilation of a medical dictionary for all of Korea

It is known that there are wide disparities in the medical terms and language that medical professionals currently use in South and North Korea. How much chaos can be expected when people will be able to come and go freely unless there is an effort to lessen these gaps? To minimize medical mess in advance and to provide a better environment to strengthen collaborative exchanges between South and North Korea, which should be independent of political beliefs and dynamics, as part of the efforts for inter-Korea medical consolidation, I would like to underscore the need to compile an integrative medical dictionary. For the compilation of such a dictionary, the following process and preparations are suggested. First, there should be a database of medical terminology from North Korea through a search of various types of literature in North Korea, including dictionaries, journals, and textbooks. Second, entry words for an integrative dictionary based on English terms should be included. Third, specialists in medical terminology from the northern side should participate in the editing process and hold discussions with their southern counterparts. Fourth, after the full discussion and consensus has taken place, print and web versions of the dictionary can be published. Furthermore, a dissemination plan should be established to be used widely with both sides. The above strategy should also be supported by not only the medical society in South Korea but also the Korean government.

Merriam en el año 1.872 y el "Nuevo Diccionario Inglés-Español y Español-Inglés" de Lopes, J., & Bensley, del año 1.882. Se realizó en procura de conocer y aclarar el significado contextual de los síntomas mentales del repertorio de Kent, en la época en la cual fue escrito (finales del s. XIX). Se encontró que la mayoría de los rubros de los repertorios existentes en castellano, han sido traducidos correctamente y que unos pocos síntomas se prestan para una discusión y análisis más profundos.

Sayyed Esma'il Jorjani, founder of Persian medicine

Sayyed Esmail Josjani [Gorgani] was one of the greatest scientists and physicians of Iran died in 1136 in merve. He promted writing medical book in Persian by authoring the valuable book of zakhireh kharazmshahi and Al Aghraz al tibia. Of course writing medical books in Persian was common before Avicennas time [980 - 1037]. Zakhireh and Aghraz are like big and medium medical encyclopedia and even since the creation of the present Persian script. These books are the last and most important medical books in Persian. Like any other ancient book, some parts of these books are abolished but some other parts are valuable. However these books are remained to be unique as Persian medical books in the course of time. I have edited and corrected al - Aghraz al tibia [Medical goals] from several old manuscripts. There are seveval manuscripts of al - Aghraz [which is about 250000 words]. To edit and correct this book, I have used five old important manuscripts of Aghraz and one manuscripts of zakhireh kharazmihahi. I have published this book in 2 volumes in 2005 - 2006. At the end of the second volume, I compiled a medical dictionary named Dictionary of Aghraz. The references of this work are various documents including manuscripts of published, old and new medical sources in persain or Arabic languages and some English or French documents
