"Polarization" is a word in ENGLISH
An effect produced upon the plates of a voltaic
battery, or the electrodes in an electrolytic cell, by the deposition
upon them of the gases liberated by the action of the current. It is
chiefly due to the hydrogen, and results in an increase of the
resistance, and the setting up of an opposing electro-motive force,
both of which tend materially to weaken the current of the battery, or
that passing through the cell.
A peculiar affection or condition of the rays of
light or heat, in consequence of which they exhibit different
properties in different directions.
The act of polarizing; the state of being polarized,
or of having polarity.
....her life would be a giddy crossword, working down from some clues and across from others.

A man learned shortly before quitting time that he had to attend a meeting. He tried unsuccessfully to locate his car-pool members to let them know that he would not be leaving with them. Hastily he scribbled a message to one fellow and left it on his desk: "I have a last-minute meeting. Leave without me. Dave." At 7:00 p.m., the man stopped at his desk and found this note: "Meet us at the bar and grill across the street. You drove today, you idiot."
A substance used to prevent polarization, as upon the negative plate of a voltaic battery.
