English is looking for a replacement for the word "field" due to the racist connotations of it. Personally, as a German I don't understand it. but you Anglos do you I guess.
In German, we use "Körper", which means "body" (etymologically related to "corporeal"). This could also serve as a replacement for "field", as "body" isn't really used in math-math, just physics. What's the term for field in your language?
