English term or phrase: \"Physics\" vs \"physics\"?
Vai angļu valodā ir būtiska atšķirība starp "Physics", rakstītu teikuma vidū ar lielo sākuma burtu, un "physics", rakstītu ar mazo sākuma burtu?
Piemērs:
"The learning was linked to the curriculum subjects - Math, Languagues (Latvian, English, German, Russian), Physics, Music, art, biology, chemistry, physics, economic, home economics, computer science, history, literature, sports."
(metodiskais materiāls skolotājiem)
Šī ir vienkārši neuzmanības radīta atkārtošanās un vienu no "physics" var izdzēst no avota, vai arī ir nozīme tam, ka viens ir ar lielo "P"?

***

Are there signifficant difference between capital "Physics" when writed in the midle of sentence and "physics" (look cited sentence above)?
I'm confused is it just repetition and I can delete one of "physics" or there might be a reason why one of them are capital?

Explanation:
Neesmu "native speaker", bet zinu, ka ar lielajiem burtiem raksta tikai valodas (priekšmetus) (GB).
British Council: And we use capital letters when we talk about languages as school subjects – but other subjects don’t have a capital letter.
