What word will you pick and what results do you get?

I decided to try a technical term from advanced mathematics: homomorphism.

I found exactly one post.

It was from seven years ago.

It was from....me! 🤦🏻‍♂️

@ElwoodBlues Not being versed in advanced mathematics I couldn't say

@ElwoodBlues they have different meanings in mathematics. Homeomorphisms appear in topology, whereas homomorphisms are from Abstract Algebra. They both refer to structure-preserving transformations, but different kinds of structures in each case.

I believe homeomorphism is a term that biologists also use, with yet a different meaning of course.
@DrWatson Thanks! I then googled it and got the additional insight that homeomorphisms are continuous, hence often geometric; whereas homomorphisms are non-continuous. Also, if a homomorphism is invertible, it's a called an isomorphism; those I've encountered and enjoyed!
Eutectic, which is a mineralogy term, has only one hit; seemingly a tongue-in-cheek post about life beginning in Tennessee.
