While having English as a shared language within the scientific community contributes to more
efficient communication and peer reviews, it also puts non-native speakers in a disadvantaged
position. Moreover, we argue that some concepts are inherently untranslatable and, thus, the
pluralism of languages can prevent the loss of unique concepts. We use Quine's thesis on the
indeterminacy of translation to demonstrate the way the knowledge of marginalized scientists
gets lost. We analyze the consequences of linguistic injustice in science and propose two
measures for overcoming it: practicing epistemic equity and introducing mitigating agents.
