The system of naming organisms using two words—the genus and species, as developed by Carl Linnaeus.
From Latin 'bi-' (two) + 'nomen' (name) + 'clatura' (calling, naming). The formal scientific term for the two-part naming system that revolutionized biological classification.
Binomenclature is one of science's most elegant solutions—it's a universal language that lets a biologist in Japan talk to one in Brazil using exactly the same organism name, crossing language barriers completely!
