dental怎么读

Answer 1

dental的读法是['dent(ə)l]。

dental是形容词牙科的、牙齿的或者牙的的意思。dental的中文词源来自dent，牙齿，来自ed的现在分词，词源同edible，tooth。英文词源是1590s, from Middle French dental "of teeth" or Medieval Latin dentalis。可造句子如下：

1、I know it's a good idea to use dental floss.

我知道用洁牙线是一个好主意。

2、The coroner recorded a verdict of acci-dental death.

验尸官作出了意外死亡的结论。

3、The fees offered by the NHS do not recompense dental surgeons for their professional time.

国民医疗保健系统所支付的费用中不涵盖牙科诊疗费用。

4、A school dental service exists in theory, but in practice, there are few dentists to work in them.

照理说，学校也有牙医诊所，可实际上，里面的牙医寥寥无几。
