With clocks, we measure the numerical order t₀, t₁, t₂, . . . , t_n of a material change, i.e., motion running in space. There is no experimental evidence that clocks measure time. It is convenient to replace the concept of time with the numerical order of material change. This view corresponds more adequately to the physical world and resolves Zeno problems of motion.

A l'aide des horloges, on mesure l'ordre numérique t₀, t₁, t₂, . . . , t_n d'un changement matériel, un mouvement dans l'espace par exemple. Il n'est pas prouvé expérimentalement que les horloges mesurent le temps. Il est pertinent de remplacer le concept de temps par l'ordre numérique d'un changement matériel. Cette façon de voir correspond de manière plus adéquate au monde physique et résout les problèmes de Zenon au sujet du mouvement.
