"Kisah ini diceritakan tentang Lord Kelvin, seorang ahli fisika Scotch terkenal abad terakhir, bahwa setelah dia memberi ceramah tentang atom dan molekul, salah seorang muridnya datang kepadanya dengan pertanyaan, "Profesor, apa ide Anda tentang struktur itu? atom. " "Apa," kata Kelvin, "Struktur atom? Mengapa, tidak tahukah kamu, kata 'atom' berarti benda yang tidak dapat dipotong. Bagaimana bisa ia memiliki struktur?" "Itu," kata pemuda yang bercanda itu, "menunjukkan kerugian dari mengenal bahasa Yunani.""

The story is told of Lord Kelvin, a famous Scotch physicist of the last century, that after he had given a lecture on atoms and molecules, one of his students came to him with the question, "Professor, what is your idea of the structure of the atom."

"That," remarked the facetious young man, "shows the disadvantage of knowing Greek."
