Not thinking about the context of the sentence, how would you describe the differences between the words uncertainty and worry?
Hey
Uncertainty = No surety about future events
Worry = stress about what may happen
Exactly, worry is a more emotion-laden word. We should strive to match the tone of the rest of the sentence. Do you see anything in the sentence itself to suggest the scientists are emotional?
You are right, nothing suggests being emotional here. I did a bit of storytelling here maybe. Thanks.
