Well, if you are going to define something in terms of something else, then you need to know what the something else means. Otherwise, all you are doing is substituting different words for "right" and "left" without conveying any real meaning. Have you ever picked up a fucking dictionary? Yeah. If it is that easy then you should be done already. Wat? Seriously. Have you ever picked up a fucking dictionary? How does a dictionary define words? HOLY SHIT, IS IT WITH OTHER WORDS!?

Quoted: Using nothing but words you can type, explain the concept of left and right (as in hands, not politics) such that any reader of your words would know which hand was their left and which was their right. In doing so, you cannot refer to the way in which the language is displayed on the screen. Your explanation will have to work even if the words are only spoken, or if the reader was reading it in some other language that didn't go left to right.

I have to assume they dont know what a watch is, the sun, heart etc. but they can read English? For purposes of possibly communicating with someone from another planet -- yes. Or, at least we have found a common language, such as math, that allows us to communicate meaning. Perfect, so math is universal now? Not a human construct? Then you'll agree that (ETA: counter-)clockwise, as fucking mentioned earlier, can be demonstrated on a coordinate plane by rotating from zero degrees to any positive angle. Now that clockwise is back on your bullshit table, we can use it as explained in the first response. Done. |
