pulmonary 肺的，肺部的

來自拉丁語pulmo,肺，來自希臘語pleumon,肺，來自PIE*pleu,流動，漂流，詞源同flow,pneumonia.其詞義演變可能是肺較輕，其它器官如心，臟，腎等都會沉入水中，而肺能在水上漂浮。比較lung.

pulmonary: pulmonary: [18] Latin pulmō meant ‘lung’ (it was related to Greek pleúmōn ‘lung’, ultimate source of English pneumonia). From it was formed the adjective pulmōnārius, which English adopted at the beginning of the 18th century as pulmonary.
pulmonary (adj.): 1704, from French pulmonaire and directly from Latin pulmonarius "of the lungs," from pulmo (genitive pulmonis) "lung," cognate with Greek pleumon "lung," Old Church Slavonic plusta, Lithuanian plauciai "lungs," all from PIE *pleu- "to flow, to float, to swim" (see pluvial).

The notion perhaps is from the fact that, when thrown into a pot of water, lungs of a slaughtered animal float, while the heart, liver, etc., do not (compare Middle English lights "the lungs," literally "the light (in weight) organs"). Also see pneumo-.

2. Maybe pulmonary edema was not in the cards for me after all.: 也許我根本就不會得肺氣腫.

3. When pulmonary capillary pressure is markedly elevated, pulmonary edema ensues.: 當(dāng)肺毛細(xì)血管壓力明顯升高時, 就出現(xiàn)肺水腫.

4. The lungs should be examined for possible pulmonary edema.: 應(yīng)檢查肺部,視其是否有肺水腫.

5. The pulmonary migration of larvae is associated with fever, cough, occasionally hemoptysis.: 蛔蚴肺部移行,可伴有發(fā)熱、咳嗽、偶爾咯血.
