“体检”不是“body check”，说错就尴尬了！

“体检” 不是 body check，'body' 在特定语境下还有“尸体”的意思，让人误解就不好了！
“体检” 的正确说法是 checkup，physical examination 或 medical examination。
I had to go back for my checkup; they'd lost my X-rays.
我得回去再做一次体检。他们把我的X光片弄丢了。
We’ll get started with the physical examination right after I’ve washed my hands.
等我洗完手，我们就可以开始体检。
Please send me the classification of medical examination items.
请把具体的体检项目分类发给我。
