4th Dimension -not time-?

What is the 4 th dimension

Like the thing with adding to the 3rd dimension is what I want.

I don't want "time" as an answer.

Time is required for dimensions to exist but it is not one of them.

Length and width do not require depth to exist

Don't give me Albert einstins general relativity.

    The first dimension is time. Net production of entropy assures that.

    The three spatial dimensions are derivative to time, and arise from conservation of momentum. So you can pick from x, y, z, r, theta, phi as "fourth", since that would only be convention. Then if you wanted a fifth you could choose mass, spin, charge (Kaluza-Klein), or one of the other important values.

    You either want an answer, or you want someone to lie to you and tell you something other than time. I won't lie to you, time is in the the Big Five, whatever order you place them in.

    I guess you are wanting to know any other dimension apart from the 3 spatial ones and time.

    Only the above 4 dimensions can be felt by human Beings. The other dimensions have to deal with possibilities. The fifth and sixth dimensions have to deal with the future.In essence if you could master each the fifth and sixth dimension you could travel back in time or go to different futures.

    The dimensions 7 through 10 deal with universes. It basically states that there are several universes that each have their own progressions of dimensional reality and possible outcomes. The tenth and final dimension is actually the some of all universes and all their possible outcomes.

    the 4 dimension would be space with another way of moving other than forward and back, left and right, or up and down, since we cant percieve the 4th dimension i dont know what we would call the new directions
