记忆技巧Memory Tip
neuro=神经，-osis=病症；把neurosis想成“神经生病”，即神经官能症。
语境与语域Context & Register
语域：formal 常见场景：psychology、psychiatry、clinical diagnosis 这是一个医学/心理学正式术语，通常用于临床诊断、学术文献或专业讨论，口语中不常用。如果只是形容日常的焦虑或压力，英语里更常说 anxiety 或 stress。
语法说明Grammar Note
复数形式为 neuroses。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
这 6 个词都以 -osis 结尾，重音均在倒数第二音节，且末尾读 /ˈoʊsəs/，因此都与 neurosis /nʊˈroʊsəs/ 押韵。注意不要与 neuroses（复数，/nʊˈroʊsiːz/）或 neurotic（神经质的，/nʊˈrɑːtɪk/）混淆，它们的发音并不相同。
