Notes on Usage
- "Sỏi ruột" is a compound noun. The word "sỏi" alone means "stone" or "gravel," and "ruột" means "intestine(s)." As a fixed medical term, it should be used as a single unit.
- It is not used in everyday conversation. In common speech, a descriptive phrase like "có sỏi trong ruột" (to have stones in the intestines) might be more understandable to non-medical individuals.
