What is binomial nomenclature

Binomial nomenclature is a fancy way of saying "The genus and species of a certain creature" by taxonomists.

For example, we human beings are Homo sapiens. (Italicize that. There's a proper way of writing binomial nomenclatures)

The "Homo" part is the genus and the "sapiens" is the species. They are part of an even bigger system of naming stuff. Try this mnemonic:

King Philip Came Over From Great Spain
Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
