Chemical words

[TSUYO]

Could anyone kindly tell me the meaning of 'aminomethylbenzoic', 'dihydroergotamine mesylate' and 'metronidazole'?

If you know them in Chinese, please tell me, that will be very nice of you!

Thanks!

definitely not in chinese! Most of these terms are assembled from greek words. A greek dictionary may help you. There may also be a chinese high school or intro-university textbook that will cover the roots in a chemical context. Here are the ones that I know offhand and with some quick wikipedia.org searching:

aminomethylbenzoic

amino:
Image:Amine-2D-general.png - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
functional group with nitrogen as a key, surrounded by up to 3 groups of any kind except carbonate. Amino acids in polymers make up protein and the information held in DNA is encoded on Amino acids.

Methyl
a bonded group (R1 of an amine?) made from Methane. Methylamine would be 3(CH3)N

Benzoic
(from benzoic acid) more accurately called Benzoate in this chemical. Maybe another R group of your Amine, but this is now fairly high level organic chemistry:
Methyl benzoate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

No time left for this, so I will break up the roots for you so you can wikipedia it yourself. Try bigger parts if you cant find any info in the small pieces I have cut them into.
