记忆方法
将“diabetes”拆分成两部分来记忆：“dia”可以联想到“through”或“all around”，表示影响整个；“betes”可以想象成“beat”的发音，而“beat”在英文中意味着“击打”或“影响”，所以整个词可以想象为“影响全身”或“全方位影响”，这样有助于记忆这个与糖尿病相关的单词。

diabetes: [16] Diabetes means literally ‘passing through’; it was originally so named in Greek because one of the symptoms of the disease is excessive discharge of urine. Greek diabétēs was a derivative of diabaínein ‘pass through’, a compound verb formed from the prefix dia- ‘through’ and baínein ‘go’ (a relative of English basis and come). English acquired it via medieval Latin diabētēs. Compare DIARRHOEA.
=> basis, come - diabetes (n.)
- 1560s, from medical Latin diabetes, from late Greek diabetes "excessive discharge of urine" (so named by Aretaeus the Cappadocian, physician of Alexandria, 2c.), literally "a passer-through, siphon," from diabainein "to pass through," from dia- "through" (see dia-) + bainein "to go" (see come).
An old common native name for it was pissing evil. In classical Greek, diabainein meant "to stand or walk with the legs apart," and diabetes meant "a drafting compass," from the position of the legs.
