انتروبيا entropy

-->
Etymology of Arabic words: the word انتروبيا
(entroubia?) means entropy (Wikipedia:Entropy is a thermodynamic property that is the measure of a system’s thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work) and derives from the greek language as the technical term in English was formed on the basis of the greek prefix εν- (en) meaning “in” and the verb τρέπω (trepo) which is explained better in the phrase “ κάνω καποιον να τραπει σε φυγη”=make someone to flee/to run away. In Turkish is entropi.
P.S. The concept "entropy" is one of the most difficult issues in Physics.
