Learner notes
Memory Tip
把path(小路)和genesis(起源)串成画面：疾病沿着一条小径从起源走到发作。path帮记拼写，genesis帮记“发生、起源”。
Context & Register
语域：formal 常见场景：医学文献、学术论文、临床报告 pathogenesis 通常用于医学或生物学等正式语境，表示疾病的发病机制或致病过程；多出现在学术论文、教科书和临床资料中，日常口语较少使用。复数形式为 pathogeneses。
Pronunciation & Spelling
pathogenesis 的尾部发音为 /ˈdʒenɪsɪs/，因此以 -genesis 结尾的词（genesis、biogenesis、ontogenesis）与之押韵。gene、genetic、genus 都以 gen- 开头，但发音各不相同，并不押韵。
