Why are scientific names of living beings considered better than their common names?
उत्तर
In science, people from different countries with different languages have to read about each others research. So, it was necessary to eliminate any possible confusion created by local names. Scientific names are based on certain rules which are universal. They are unique and can be used to identify an organism anywhere around the world. That is why scientific names of living beings are considered better than their common names.
