Medicine

Vocabulary for health, illness, body, and clinical intervention in Tonesu.

Medicine sits at the intersection of biology (body-as-system), ethics (care obligations), and causation (diagnosis as causal inference). The MED-001 corpus batch is the baseline stress-test. Key roots: zo (life/signal), be (growth/decay), pa (presence/place — locus of symptom), ra (energy/force — intervention), no-be (pathological decay).

Interesting pressure points: Tonesu's evidential frame () is clinically natural — reported symptoms are epistemically distinct from observed signs. The go vs ; distinction matters for diagnosis vs mere correlation.
