From The Elegant Universe, by Brian Greene
NOTHING
"To someone who knows only English, general relativity might not immediately be recognized as Einstein's theory if presented in Chinese. A physicist fluent in both languages, though, can easily perform a translation from one to the other, establishing their equivalence. We call this example 'trivial' because nothing is gained, from the point of view of physics, by such a translation."
