endemic (en DEM ik) From the Greek words for “in” and “people,” this adjective means “native or common to or peculiar to a specific region or abstract area.” Perhaps because of the fact it sounds similar to “epi-demic,” it’s often (though not always) used for negative phenomena.
•When the first year teacher felt overwhelmed with work, she consulted her experienced colleague who said consolingly, “Feeling absolutely swamped is endemic to being a new teacher. You’ll never have the time you need, but you’ll learn to accept that and live with the feeling.”
•“If you’re planning to travel in an equatorial region,” said Dr. Abernethy, “you must get shots for diseases that are endemic to that region.”

从希腊语中的“in”和“people”，这个形容词的意思是“特定地区或抽象地区的本地人、共同人或特有人”。也许是因为它听起来类似于“epi demic”，所以它经常（但并不总是）用于负面现象。
•当第一年的老师感到工作不堪重负时，她咨询了经验丰富的同事，后者安慰地说：“感觉完全被淹没是一名新老师的特有习惯。你永远不会有你需要的时间，但你会学会接受这种感觉，并与这种感觉一起生活。”
•“如果你计划在赤道地区旅行，”阿伯内西博士说，“你必须为该地区特有的疾病接种疫苗。”
