Hospital

Vocabulary List Number 407 v.0.5 with 10 entries in 1 chapter containing 6 definitions and 3 synonyms. Updated at May 22, 2026.

         Main Definitions

  1. Britannica: hospital |n| an institution that is built, staffed, and equipped for the diagnosis of disease, for the treatment of the sick and injured, and for their housing during this process. The modern hospital also often serves as a center for research and teaching. To better serve the wide-ranging needs of the community, the modern hospital often has outpatient facilities, as well as emergency, psychiatric, and rehabilitation services. In addition, “bedless hospitals” provide strictly ambulatory (outpatient) care and day surgery. Patients arrive at the facility for short appointments. They may also stay for treatment in surgical or medical units for part of a day or for a full day, after which they are discharged for follow-up by a primary care health provider. Hospitals have long existed in most countries. Less-developed countries, which contain a large proportion of the world’s population, generally do not have enough hospitals, equipment, and trained staff to handle the volume of persons who need care. Thus, people in these countries do not always receive the benefits of modern medicine, public health measures, or hospital care, and they generally have lower life expectancies. (From Britannica. May 19, 2026.)
  2. Cambridge: hospital |n| a place where people who are ill or injured are treated and taken care of by doctors and nurses. (From Cambridge Dictionary. May 13, 2026.)

These facilities feature 24-hour diagnostic services, laboratory work, operating rooms, and inpatient accommodation, often serving as centers for research and medical education. (From Google IA.

  5. Longman: hospital |countable, uncountable| |n| a large building where sick or injured people receive medical treatment. (From Longman Dictionary. May 17, 2026.)

  7. Wikipedia: hospital |n| a healthcare institution providing patient treatment with specialized medical science and auxiliary healthcare staff and medical equipment. The best-known type of hospital is the general hospital, which typically has an emergency department to treat urgent health problems ranging from fire and accident victims to a sudden illness. A district hospital typically is the major health care facility in its region, with many beds for intensive care and additional beds for patients who need long-term care. (From Wikipedia.

 Vocabulary List Number 406 v.0.5 with 8 entries in 1 chapter conformed by 7 definitions and 1 example. Updated at May 23, 2026.

        Main Definition

  1. Britannica: astrology |n| type of divination that involves the forecasting of earthly and human events through the observation and interpretation of the fixed stars, the Sun, the Moon, and the planets. Adherents believe that an understanding of the influence of the planets and stars on earthly affairs allows them to predict, explain, and affect the fates of individuals, groups, and nations. Often regarded as a science throughout its history, astrology is widely considered today to be a pseudoscience that is diametrically opposed to the findings and theories of modern Western science. Yet around the globe millions of people, to varying degrees, put their faith in such systems as the zodiac in the West, the Chinese zodiac in East Asia, and Hindu astrology in South Asia, which give believers both a sense of fateful dependence and the potential to alter fate. (From Brinnica. May 22, 2025.)
  2. Google IA: astrology |n| is the study of the supposed influence that the positions and movements of celestial bodies—stars, sun, moon, and planets—have on human affairs and terrestrial events. It is a system of divination often used to interpret character, personality, and predict future events based on the zodiac at the time of birth. (From Google IA. May 12, 2036.)
  3. Cambridge: astrology |n| the study of the movements and positions of the sun, moon, planets, and stars in the belief that they affect the character and lives of people. Unlike astronomy, astrology cannot be described as an exact science. In astrology, a person's personality is supposed to relate to which star sign they were born under. (From the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary & Thesaurus © Cambridge University Press.). May 13, 2025.)
  4. Cambridge A.L.A.: astrology |n| the ancient practice of studying the movements and positions of the sun, moon, planets, and stars in the belief that they influence human behavior. (From the Cambridge Advanced Learner's American Dictionary © Cambridge University Press. May 13, 2025).
  5. Longman: astrology |n| |uncountable| the study of the positions and movements of the stars and how they might influence people and events. (From Longman Dictionary. May 17, 2025.)
  6. Merriam Webster: astrology |n| the divination of the supposed influences of the stars and planets on human affairs and terrestrial events by their positions and aspects. (From Merriam Webster. May 15, 2026.)
  7. Oxford: astrology |n| the study of the positions of the stars and the movements of the planets in the belief that they influence human affairs. (From Oxford Learners Dictionary. May 23, 2026.)

Objects of interest include planets, moons, stars, nebulae, galaxies, meteoroids, asteroids, and comets. Relevant phenomena include supernova explosions, gamma ray bursts, quasars, blazars, pulsars, and cosmic microwave background radiation. More generally, astronomy studies everything that originates beyond Earth's atmosphere. Cosmology is the branch of astronomy that studies the universe as a whole. Astronomy is one of the oldest natural sciences. The early civilizations in recorded history made methodical observations of the night sky. These include the Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, Indians, Chinese, Maya, and many ancient indigenous peoples of the Americas. In the past, astronomy included disciplines as diverse as astrometry, celestial navigation, observational astronomy, and the making of calendars. Astronomy is one of the few sciences in which amateurs play an active role. This is especially true for the discovery and observation of transient events. Amateur astronomers have helped with many important discoveries, such as finding new comets. (From Wikipedia. May 14, 2026.)

Drawing heavily from the theories of literary-genre criticism, film genres are usually delineated by "conventions, iconography, settings, narratives, characters and actors". One can also classify films by the tone, theme/topic, mood, format, target audience, or budget. These characteristics are most evident in genre films, which are "commercial feature films [that], through repetition and variation, tell familiar stories with familiar characters and familiar situations" in a given genre.
