The Etymological Engineer's Hill To Die On

The linguistic rebel of the engineering world! This meme is playing with the fact that the device shown is typically called a "multimeter" (measures multiple electrical properties like voltage and current), but the creator is making a hilarious etymological argument. Since "multi" comes from Latin and "meter" from Greek, they're insisting it should be called a "polymeter" (poly = Greek for many). It's that classic nerdy hill to die on - demanding etymological consistency in our technical jargon! Next they'll be telling us "television" should be "telerama" because mixing Latin and Greek roots is scientific blasphemy! 😂
