Slippy/slippery
You get any answer you want out of an algebraic formula if you just throw a zero in it—if you throw a slippy zero in it that says 1 – 1 = 2.
It can be worked out so it will: 1 – 1 = 2, because 1 – 1 is zero. slippy:1. slippery, meaning, that cannot be relied upon as lasting or as certain. Probably what I am quoting doesn't make much sense out of context, but my question, has to do with the "slippy" or "slippery" I would tend to translate it as "resbaladizo" "escurridizo", but could also be "engañoso". Any opinions and/or ideas on the matter are welcome. (Don't get involved in the Eintein's time formula to talk to me about the philosophical connotations of "zero time") |
Your "engañoso" is quite good. I've seen that used and always imagined it is "taimado", meaning specifically "disimulado+", a zero in disguise.

Thank you Alec!
