    If they were made by scientists of the Western culture, they were
    Latin; such names look by no ways strange, as biology and medicine
    show. Maybe English in 1000 years will be something like Latin today,
    and the "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A" will have its name unchanged as well
    as the "dorsa spinalis" in anatomy.
