Subject: Marathi translations of Bal Vaigyanik chapters - "Graphs of
Motion" and "Composition of Matter and The Language of Symbols"
To: Anish Mokashi <anish.dot@xxxxxxxxx>
Dear Anish
Attached is final version of पदार्थांची रचना.
The translation of `Graphs of Motion' is also basically done but we are
stuck because we are not happy with the choice of some words.
The problem is choosing correct words for motion and speed. The word for
motion is गती. This creates a problem in choosing a word for speed where
गती would be good. We cannot choose वेग because we will need it for
velocity.
The government balbharati texts use गती for motion, चाल for speed. Somehow
we find चाल for speed very ugly.
We would prefer to use चलन/गतीमानता for motion and retain गती for speed,
but we do not know if we are free to do that. Do let us know which of these
options is acceptable for you and we will finalise the chapter.
Warmly
Swatija

Dear Anish,
Absolutely no problem.
We only felt if it very urgent then we may have to say no.
Warmly,
Swatija

Dear Anish,
Thanks. Good to know earlier translations were useful.
Let us know what is dead line. If it is less than ten days that may be a
problem. Let us know as soon as possible.
Warmly,

Dear Swatija and Suhas,
Thank you very much for your previous translations. They were very
useful in the workshop for teachers at Amravati. The translations were also
well-appreciated by everyone. Thanks again.
Will it be possible for you to translate two more chapters? I have
attached the English and the Hindi versions. These chapters are from the
8th grade Bal Vaigyanik textbook titled "Graphs of Motion" and "Composition
of Matter and The Language of Symbols". Please let us know if this is okay
for you.
Best, Anish
P.S. I could not come to Thane this time. I was at Chembur for the
conference at Homi Bhabha Centre and there was a workshop immediately
afterwards. Hope to meet you in my next Mumbai trip. Please do come home if
you happen to visit Bangalore.
