Question

dementia n.痴呆 (1) 同样，老化也未必一定导致痴呆。(2) 痴呆症很少出现在六十岁前。 Although dementia is most common in elderly people, it's not a normal part of growing older but a syndrome caused by brain disease or injury. Dementia gets its name from the Latin words de, or "without," and mens, or "mind," which join together to mean "madness," although in English, dementia is not the same thing as madness. One example of an illness that causes dementia is Alzheimer's disease.
