for Mr Moomaw Re: [ILAT] Quantam physics

Neskie- not sure how you would communicate the terms in your vernacular
I know that there are parallels in neuroscience to these concepts, but in terms of definitions for the discipline- wow what a question. English (German etc.)  languages - find the root word and make a science vocabulary? through comparitive terms? Interesting. ...the language we are working on has so many borrowed terms...

Weytk,

Wow.  I read over bits of it and can't wait to read the whole thing.
I'm Secwepemc and a physicist by schooling.

At a young age I started to disbelieve the myth that Indians aren't
good at Math and Science and don't get it.  I've always found evidence
to the contrary.  From the designs our structures to the beautiful
logical arguments of our elders.

Like all forms of logic it has it's place and must be applied with
context.  Newtonian Physics is very well suited for determining the
trajectory of projectile, but ill suited to describe the motions of
sub atomic particles.

How does this tie into language?  I would love to be able to explain
science and physics in my language.
