Sep 22, 2017 at 11:20 comment added D.F.F Semantics refers to "3. (Logic) logic a. the study of interpretations of a formal theory". So yes, it is similar to your example with the physics (which again seems odd in singular)
Sep 22, 2017 at 11:16 comment added Edwin Ashworth @D.F.F. Again, what are you trying to say? 'The two physics are very different' is acceptable (if rare) in some situations.
Sep 22, 2017 at 11:02 comment added andselisk To me as long as the plural verb is used ("are") it's OK.
Sep 22, 2017 at 11:01 comment added D.F.F So it is correct to write "the two semantics are very different"?
