I've just thought about this the other day and wondered if there are more appropriate germanic stems to use? In German, science is "Wissenschaft", Dutch has a similar word. There is a cognate stem to "wissen" in English, "wit". Similar for atomic, I wonder if you could use an "deal" in an archaic meaning for splitting. Like "liekedeeler" in Low German means "he who splits the bounty equally" (a kind of pirate). So "undealing's wittery"? Or "wittery of notsplittables"? (Edit: ah, it seems the author uses beholding for theory, and worldken for science which is pretty interesting. It's been a while since I've read it.) And I've also been wondering if you could construct the opposite, only using the romanic parts of the language. You would probably get really corrupted medival french?
