True! My fields were geology and paleontology on the one hand, and chemistry, spec. geochemistry; each has developed its own vocabulary. Fortunately, we had a couple of German university graduates one in physical chemistry and the other in engineering- and they could help with constructions with which I was unfamiliar.

I would also be certain that these techincal languages are continuing to evolve. If one doesn't keep up with his speciality, he would be lost (which describes me since I retired years ago).
