What is 外科医生? Indy at first thought it was "foreign surgeon", and that cracked me up. I know that there's something called "internal medicine", but didn't know there's something called "external medicine". So when "internal medicine" was translated as 内科, and the practioners were translated as 内科医生; so there must be something opposite to 内科医生, hence 外科医生. Could this be right? Please enlighten me.
三个外科医生争夸自己的医术。第一个说：“我给一个男人接上了胳膊，他现在是全国闻名的棒球手。”第二个说：“我给一个人接好腿，他现在是世界著名的长跑运动员。”“你们的都不算什么奇迹。”第三个说，“我为一个人接上了笑容，他现在已经是国会议员了。
Three surgeons were bragging about their medical skills.The first one said, "I helped a man reattach his arm,and right now he's a famous baseball player."The second one said, "I reattached a person's leg,he's currently a famous sprinter.""Your feats aren't considered that good."The third one scoffed,"I helped give a person a smile,and right now he's a Congressman."
