Agreed.
 

Currently I think that this concept is not related to motion at all. It should be called chirality.

If {farna} is just a vector and {klama} is a movement according to such vector then

"chirality" is a twisted vector and {carna} is a movement according to such vector.

chirality (uncountable)

1. The phenomenon, in chemistry, physics and mathematics, in which an object differs from its mirror image.

Based on that definition, which is the /only/ one on wiktionary, I have to disagree.
 

Sorry for such term as "twisted vector" but I'm not an expert in such things.

If there are mathematicians or topologists around please enlighten us.
