Interestingly, in physics, the definition of time is the following:

It's what a clock says.

I'm not even kidding.

Which means, it's what a clock says while the clock is moving relative to something else.

Or, in math:

Which is to say, it's what a clock says depending on what you're doing as measured from the clock.

It gets even goofier from that point forward.
