I'm not in any way picking on you, but somebody below asked how to look up words when you're not sure what they are. Since you knew it was some kind of fork, you could have looked up "fork" in the MPI and it lists 7 different medical forks, and you would have been able to deduce 'tuning fork' from this since you had a soundalike. I learned more new words from this reference book than anything else.
Thanks, great one for reference. Definite keeper to Favorites.

You'll see it come up, click on that, and it will direct you to numerous dictionaries in which it is found. Click on one under the medical dictionary. Onelook is a very good place to look up words or parts of words, as you can only request the part you know. Hope this helps.

No, I do not have any reference books with the word "supertherapeutic" listed. (sm)
Subject: No, I do not have any reference books with the word "supertherapeutic" listed. (sm)

Stedman's electronic dictionary gives the definition of the prefix "super" as: In excess, above...

Webster's dictionary gives the definition of the prefix "super" as: over and above; higher in quantity.

Pharmaceutical documents use the term "supertherapeutic" doses.

Google.  I have seen more than a few MTs that tend to check s/l words with this search engine and some of the things that get linked together on there can be either frightening or funny at times, depending how you look at it!  Just an over-cautious old MT?

Subject: www.onelook.com

You can search on part of the word. Also it never hurts to try googling the word, especially if you have some other pertinent words to use in the search as well. If you're close enough, Google will sometimes give it to you. There's also Google Suggest, particularly helpful if you know the begining of words or phrases but not the end. As you type, it starts giving a list of suggestions. Hope some of that helps.
