Subjects you learn, sports you like, hobbies you enjoy — each of them has its own vocabulary, glossary of terms, lingo, if you will. Anatomy is no different. It has its own set of terms to describe structures in relation to each other, where they are located more generally, and even how they move. If you really master these terms, you can accelerate your ability to hardwire all this anatomy knowledge in your brain.
