medical problem that is not normal
A problem or change in the body that is not normal, usually found by a medical test or exam.
Vartosenos šablonas:
an abnormality in/of [a body part or test result]
Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes say *"He has an abnormal"* instead of *"He has an abnormality"*. Use **abnormal** before a noun (*"abnormal cell"*), and **abnormality** as a noun (*"an abnormality in his cells"*). Another mistake is using **disease** when tests show a change but no clear illness yet; doctors often say **abnormality** until they know exactly what it is.
Sinonimai
anomaly (A formal, technical term often used in medical reports; slightly more general and detached in tone.)
|
defect (Stresses a fault or flaw, often sounds harsher or more negative than 'abnormality'.)
Antonimai
normality (Refers to the state of being medically normal, without any unusual findings.)

A thing or situation that is not normal or usual compared with what people expect.

Sinonimai
irregularity (Emphasizes not following the usual pattern or rule, and can sound slightly more formal or bureaucratic.)
|
oddity (Less formal and more subjective; can suggest something strange or amusing rather than clinically different.)
