I'm finding that I'm having trouble pronouncing some of the new terms when I haven't heard them before. But once I've caught someone else saying the word or ask, It makes perfect sense and sticks! Is there any web resources you'd recommend to aid with these medical terms and their proper pronunciation, perhaps with a audio examples? Thanks!

Someone may have an easier solution, but I resorted to googling it and watching videos or listening to dictionary pronunciations of a medical term. I feel no shame in admitting that I could not pronounce amebiasis or schistosomasis.
