Hi Aneta

Sounds like a physics type of text. Are you sure 'newborns' is the expression you need here? (That word is used almost exclusively for babies!)
I would rather suggest 'production' or 'creation'.
(see http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/generation , definition 2b)

Hi Lein,
This line comes from 'Annals of the History and Philosophy of Biology', where it has appeared as a Latin quotation. I asked for some more context so that I could understand the line (vide: posts under the request). That's why Francky has found that for me. Hope it's gonna be helpful for you too.

You will find a word 'generation' there and it precisely means "newborn creature" in this context.

Really? When I read it, it definitely means 'coming into being', 'creation', 'the bringing into existence'! (meaning number 1 on this site
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/generate
For example in the sentence in your link:
'If an animal of one species gives birth to an animal of another species, we also have a case of equivocal generation [of this other animal species]'.
It also seems (intuitively) to match the word 'formatio' (the forming, creating of something?) better...

I have just interpreted "formatio" as a newborn creation, but of course, dear, it may also be understood in general i.e. as a creating, forming. I think both the interpretations are fine. And I don't insist mine is better...
I haven't actually used the word "newborns" in my translation. Is "generation" fine then?

Yes, generation is fine - is it ok if I remove 'newborns' from the comments? Then it is up to the reader to pick the best interpretation

Of course, it is. Thank you.

Hi Aneta,

The meaning of motion here is a proposal, right?

No, have a look at the link in one of Aneta's posts above - 'motion' is like 'movement', 'matter in motion', things combining to become something else.

I hadn't seen it. Thank you for explaining, Lein
