Nothing at all about specialty within medicine? What else in the diagram?
Helene Olsen Richards (asker) May 10, 2006:
Yes..I wish I had more info myself. This is just one word in a diagram
Suzanne Blangsted (X) May 10, 2006:
Just stating medical can give you incorrect answers. If you can tell us more specifically what it is about, then maybe the answer can be more direct. Sut in Danish is a pacifier. Sut-enhed therefore seems to mean it is attached to something.

Peer comment(s):

agree Mads Grøftehauge : Well, it's in a patent text out there, so it has been used... Shouldn't it be 'pacifier unit' to keep the tone? ;-)

I agree with Blangsted that sut means pacifier. I think, however, that sutenhed has something to do with specific tops or lids like for example, the tops seen on many soft drink bottles or the type of lid used for toddler cups. These all have a 'sut' feeling, in that you have to suck to get any liquid.

In any case, I am guessing!
