Novennial
A novennial is a period of approximately ten years.
History/Origin
The term 'novennial' has been used historically in various contexts to denote a decade or ten-year span, though it is less common than 'decade' or 'decennial'. It originates from Latin roots 'novem' meaning nine, but in modern usage, it refers to ten years.
Current Use
Today, 'novennial' is rarely used in everyday language but may appear in scholarly or formal contexts to specify a ten-year period, especially in historical or chronological studies.
Shake
A shake is a unit of time equal to 1/60th of a second, used in measuring short durations.
History/Origin
The concept of the shake originated in nuclear physics and military contexts, particularly in the Manhattan Project, where it was used to denote the time it takes for light to travel 1 centimeter, approximately 3.33 nanoseconds. It was adopted as a convenient measure for very brief time intervals.
Current Use
Today, the shake is primarily used in nuclear physics and scientific research to describe extremely short time intervals, especially in nuclear reactions and particle physics. It is rarely used outside specialized scientific contexts.
