But the frequency of the light we see is so high, it waves up and down about 400 million million times a second, that we can't possibly see it as a wave. But we can tell, by looking at its color, what its frequency is.
Taču mums redzamās gaismas  svārstību biežums ir tik liels, — tā viļņojas augšup un lejup  aptuveni 400 miljonu miljonu reižu sekundē — ka mēs nekādi nespējam to saskatīt kā vilni. Bet, redzot tā krāsu,  mēs varam pateikt, kāda ir tā frekvence.
