The scientific names, of course, difficult to learn, have a number of advantages over the common names----

1-All hitherto known animals, plants and microorganism, irrespective of their utility, have been provided with scientific names. This has helped in classification. An animal, a plant or a microorganism without a name cannot be classified.

2-A newly discovered animal, plant or bacterium can be described or named.

3-Each kind of animal, plant or bacterium is given a single scientific name. This not only minimises the number of names one is required to learn in biology, but also eliminates the likely confusion of multiple naming.

4-An incorrect or inappropriate name can be easily set right.

5-The scientific names are universal, being used all over the world irrespective of the language of the people. A Russian student of biology knows what exactly Oryctolagus cuniculus stands for, and so does a Japanese or a German.

6-The scientific names indicate relationship of the species with other placed in the same genus.

7-The scientific names are often descriptive, indicating some important characteristic of the organism.

8-The scientific names are derived from Latin or Greek. Both of these are dead languages. Hence, there is less possibility of change in the meaning of their words.

They have a lot of advantages as they are used as universal and doesn't create a difficulty to other people in different countries
