1. 1順勢療法醫師(英式拼法;美式作 homeopath)

    This is simply the British spelling of . A is a person who treats illness with homeopathy: a hugely watered-down dose of something that would, in a large amount, cause the same sort of trouble the patient already has. The working idea is "like treats like." You say it HOME-ee-oh-path; the extra e in the middle is not a second vowel you have to pronounce. British English kept oe in a handful of medical words that came through German or older Latin (homoeopath, , ); American English them (, diarrhea, estrogen). In a Taiwan classroom the American spelling is the one you will almost always see, so homoeopath can look like a typo. It is not. Same job, same person, different national spelling. Though actually, even in Britain the oe form is , and many UK sites now write . Whether the treatment works is a much louder argument than the spelling.

組成Transliteration of German Homöopath. The British oe is how that German ö (and the older Latin oe) was written; American English drops it to e.
