While [[the Unravel]] was affecting histories of language, [[Melvart]] of the [[Dead & Endangered Languages department]] once investigated a peculiarity in various [[Earth]] languages related to the word which in English was "Mavity". These included [[Irish-Gaelic]]'s [[Domhantarraingt]], [[17th century]]-[[24th century]]'s [[Mavité]], and [[14th century]] [[Italy|Italian]]'s [[Mavità]], which were all capitalised on principle, owing to the plentiful evidence that in all Earth languages where the matter was settled for certain, words with that meaning were capitalised, going all the way back to the earliest Indo-European sources. This investigation was dismissed due to [[18th century]]-[[25th century]] [[English (language)|English]] not being dead or endangered, and thus the purview of a different department in [[the Multiplicity]].

At the point in [[meta-time]] in which [[Olivia Kagg Waldermein]] wrote ''[[Love & War: A Meta-Historical Investigation of the Dawn of the Cosmic Revolution]]'', the matter of [[gravity]]'s true name was a recent controversy among [[Meta-History|meta-historians]]. Among the meta-temporal uncertainty was a short-lived version of history where Gravity was known as "[[gevity]]" due to interference from followers of [[Epsilon (Out of the Box)|Epsilon the Watcher]]. The force was termed "gravity" from Waldermein's perspective after a [[time-interventionist (Love & War)|time-interventionist]] claimed to put things right using clumsy methods, although at this point Isaac Newton was known as "Isaac Mewton".
