ok here goes.
1 dimension = .
2nd dimension = _________
3rd dimension = an object in 3d height length and width
4Th dimension = space time move an object: cup of coffee from table to mouth takes space-time moving from one spot to another takes distance and time.
space time is space and it is time. it is both and yet 2 different properties of the same thing. we can measure space. we can 'measure' time. but we are really measuring both.

SPACE is the substance that contains all mass structures.
Time is related to space because its a quantity that indicates the Status of space pressure.
Therefore just as there are different pressure levels in space,there are by the same token also different Time levels in the Universe.
It then follows if we can identify the Power levels per area in the Universe we can also identify pressure levels.
If we calculate the Energy levels in the containment of the Universe and divide it by the Power levels that exist in Space we have a the result =TIME.
Therefore Space and Time are RELATIVE.
This is the simple layman explanation of Time in Space ,without Minkowski spacetime Jargon.

Space-time is a quantum unit of minimum size and duration.
Neither can exist without the other.
It is the continuation of this pulse that gives us this universe,every thing in it and us.
Some time in the future the pulse will stop and the universe will go out of existence.
If the pulse lasts for 6 billion years,when it stops it will take 6 billion years to go out of existence.

That's not real easy. Like mass and energy, space and time are two different forms of the same thing. And the concept of 'distance' (as we normally think of it) becomes much more 'timelike' rather than 'spacelike' at relativistic velocities or relativistic accelerations (such as those found in the vicinity of a black hole)

As they say, its all relative.The truth is nobody knows for sure. My opinion is just one of millions, My answer is: no layman or otherwise can give you an answer to a question that has really screwed up some of the best IQ's in human history!! If you get the correct answer, will you please post it for ANSWER, for all we eggheads, love MERRILL!!

Try Stephen Hawkins 'A brief history of time'.
Its about as understandable an explanation of recent thinking on the subject as I have found.

If you're meeting someone you don't only have to say where but also when.
