Learners often confuse “vagina” with “vulva” and use “vagina” to talk about the external parts. In medical English, the vagina is the internal canal, while the vulva is the outside area. Learners may also use informal or vulgar slang words instead of the neutral medical term “vagina” in formal or professional situations.
