Re: Oxidizing Technical Terms!
Oxidize (and closely related words) is a technical term.
Burn isn't.
Acid getting on your hand is still said to burn your skin, even if no portion of your skin combines with oxygen in the process. An iron nail sitting in a bucket of oxegenated liquid water usually oxidizes; few people would say it burns there.
Sort of like insect vs. bug. A spider is a bug, but not an insect. Although I can see where people often get confused, as there's a lot of overlap between bug and insect.
