English is widely regarded as the global language of science now. In China, we use simplified Chinese to write scientific textbooks, teach courses and do almost everything. Let's take the simplest example, single variable calculus. I have used both a Chinese version and an English version (Thomas' "Calculus"), and to me, the English version is much, much better than the Chinese version. The technical terms become much clearer. Let's take the example of "Differentiate," "Differential," "Differentiation". When translated into Chinese, they have the same name "微分," and the subtle difference is gone.

And my question is, how can you prove one language is more efficiency than another language for science?Like proving English is more efficiency that Chinese for science.

Update: Since almost all guys agree that any language is ok for science.The question is now about efficiency in scientific contexts.

Please don't close this question, I am willing to update and edit this question
