- Mesolithic=ميزوليتية
-
- WIKIPEDIA:
- The Mesolithic (Greek: mesos "middle", lithos "stone") is an archaeological concept used to refer to specific groups of archaeological cultures defined as falling between the Paleolithic and the Neolithic. The term developed as a catch-all to refer to material that did not fit into the other categories of prehistory and after the development of radiocarbon dating the arbitrary nature of its definition has become apparent.

Mesolithic=ميزوليتية
Monolith=المنليث حجر ضخم
A monolith is a geological
feature consisting of a single massive stone
or rock, such as some mountains,
or a single piece of rock placed as, or within, a monument. Erosion
usually exposes the geological formations, which are most often made
of very hard and solid metamorphic
or igneous rock.
The word derives from the Latin
word monolithus from the Greek
word μονόλιθος (monolithos), derived from μόνος
("one" or "single") and λίθος ("stone").lithium=الليثيوم
lithium=الليثيوم
- WIKIPEDIA:
Lithium (from Greek lithos
'stone') is a soft, silver-white metal
with symbol Li
and atomic
number 3. It belongs to the alkali
metal group of chemical
elements.
lithosphere=الليثوسفير
galaxy=غالاكسي
The word galaxy
derives from the Greek
term for our own galaxy, galaxias
(γαλαξίας,
"milky
one"),
or kyklos
("circle") galaktikos ("milky")[10]
for its appearance in the sky. In Greek
mythology, Zeus
places his son born by a mortal woman, the infant Heracles,
on Hera's breast
while she is asleep so that the baby will drink her divine milk and
will thus become immortal. Hera wakes up while breastfeeding and then
realizes she is nursing an unknown baby: she pushes the baby away and
a jet of her milk sprays the night sky, producing the faint band of
light known as the Milky Way
xylophone=إكسيليفون

"wood"[1]
+ φωνή

photosphere=الفوتوسفير
- photosphere=الفوتوسفير

- WIKIPEDIA:
- The photosphere of an astronomical object is the region from which externally received light originates. The term itself is derived from Ancient Greek roots, φῶς, φωτός/phos, photos meaning "light" and σφαῖρα/sphaira meaning "sphere", in reference to the fact that it is a spheric surface perceived to emit light. It extends into a star's surface until the gas becomes opaque, equivalent to an optical depth of approximately 2/3.[1] In other words, a photosphere is the deepest region of a luminous object, usually a star, that is transparent to photons of certain wavelengths.
chromosphere=الكروموسفير
- WIKIPEDIA:

- The chromosphere (literally, "sphere of colour") is the second of the three main layers in the Sun's atmosphere and is roughly 2,000 kilometers deep. It sits just above the photosphere and just below the solar transition region.
