Doktor m (mixed or strong, genitive Doktors, plural Doktoren or (colloquial) Doktor or (archaic) Doktores, feminine Doktorin)

1. (academia) doctor
2. (medicine, informal) doctor, physician

• The normal plural is Doktoren. The unchanged form Doktor is colloquial and used only with the pronunciation in [-ɐ]. The form Doktores is archaic.
• The German word is understood to mean “medical doctor” if the context hints at that, e.g. Du musst mal zum Doktor gehen. (“You have to see a doctor.”) Unlike in English, however, this is not the case if the context is more general: Mein Vater ist Doktor. (“My father has a PhD/doctorate”). The common word for “medical doctor” is Arzt.
