The ground trodden is, for the most part, absolutely new. Fortunately, the Sanskrit philosophico-scientific terminology, however difficult from its technical character, is exceedingly precise, consistent, and expressive. I may add that I have occasionally used (perhaps with a questionable freedom) scientific terms like isomeric, polymeric, potential, etc., in a broad sense, as convenient symbols to express ideas nearly or remotely allied. - [Previous: c2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.seal-1915.c2.4) - [Next: c2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.seal-1915.c2.6) - [Up: c2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.seal-1915.c2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.seal-1915.c2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.seal-1915.c2.5) · Pramāṇa
