Polish term

diametralnie

Polish to English Science Science (general)
te parametry wpływały diametralnie na wyniki badań

znalazłem dwa amerykańskie wystąpienia "affected diametrically"

chodzi o to, że miały znaczący wpływ, ale nic nie wskazuje na to, że jakiś skrajny i drastyczny

Discussion

Andrzej Mierzejewski Jul 28, 2014:
Literary,
czy ty czasem zaglądasz do Słownika Języka Polskiego?
Namawiam, bo naprawdę warto.
Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D. Jul 26, 2014:
If literary prefers znaczący wpływ, then the definitions and the usual meanings of the word diametralne are irrelevant. Its meaning is that something had an opposite effect to the one expected, not necessarily drastic, a subjective notion that is not quantifiable. If the parameters increased rather than decreased, this would be a diametric change.
A.G. Jul 26, 2014:
chodzi o to, że miały znaczący wpływ... Sugestia pytającego czy autora tekstu?
Darius Saczuk Jul 26, 2014:
Możliwe...
literary (asker) Jul 26, 2014:
może autor czytał coś po angielsku i z "dramatically" zrobił "diametrycznie"?
