  • 前駆(ぜんく) = precursor-
  • 芽球(がきゅう) = -blast
  • 桿状核球(かんじょうかくきゅう) = band form of neutrophils

Not in the chart

  • 網状赤血球(もうじょうせっけっきゅう) = reticulocyte (It’s in bloodstream.)

Interesting vocabularies
  • 桿状(かんじょう) rod-form, but the IME doesn’t like to suggest this one. Sound-alike of 幹(かん) (tree trunk).
  • 前駆(ぜんく) forerunner, like a leading horse
  • 物陰(ものかげ) hiding place

SFX or the likes

  • てきぱき brisk, quickly. Some weird techie sound working quickly.

Phrases

  • あながち…ない not entirely. Kanji form is 強(あなが)ち.

Forgotten ones

  • ややこしい more of complicated (rather than dubious)
  • 生(せい)を受(う)ける to be born into this world. Like a holy saint (聖(せい)なる).
  • じきに right away / at once. Kanji form is 直(じき)に, which has a different reading – じかに = directly.
Good Kanji

幹

  • 幹部(かんぶ)
  • 幹(みき)

桿

  • 桿状核球(かんじょうかくきゅう) (band cell)

Probably 雨宿(あまやど)り. I learnt the other day in combination with 雨漏(あまも)り. I knew another one with this reading beforehand – 雨音(あまおと).
