temporquel
similar to that of a sequel, prequel or interquel, a temporquel is an installment within a franchise that exists within canon but in an alternate timeline; often using time travel as a plot device. Examples would be the new “Star Trek” movies and most of the “Legend of Zelda” video games. Remakes and reboots that have the same characters but don’t establish themselves to be part of the previous canon are not temporquels.
“When does ‘Terminator Dark Fate’ take place? I saw Sarah Connor in the trailer, didn’t she die between ‘Terminator 2’ and 3?”
“Terminator Dark Fate” is a sequel to ‘Terminator 2’ but in an alternate timeline where she lives, it is a temporquel to ‘Terminator 3,’ 4 and 5.”

temporal disorientation
A state in which an individual has no bearing of time whatsoever. Can be caused by long periods of drinking, heavy drinking, concussions, coma, deep sleeps, or just general obliviousness.
After that 12th tequila shot I came to at my buddy's house in a state of complete temporal disorientation.
I jacked Mike in the head so hard he didn't know what day it was (temporal disorientation).

temporal mechanics
Theory that relates to the study of time travel. Often seen causing major paradoxes, such as the Dali Paradox, Grandfather Paradox, Pogo Paradox and the Predestination Paradox.
The Dali Paradox is when a temporal fissure slows time to a gradual halt. Also called the "melting clock" effect
The Grandfather Paradox is when a person travels to a point in the past before they were born and kills one of their own ancestors, taking themselves out of the picture before they were able to travel back in time.
The Pogo Paradox is where interference designed to prevent an event actually triggers the same event.
The Predestination Paradox is like as follows: Say a man goes back in time and impregnates his great-great grandmother. The grandmother would thus give birth to one of the man's great grandparents, who would then give birth to one of his grandparents, who would then be able to give birth to one of his parents, and finally to the man himself. As a result, the man's very existence would be pre-determined by his traveling to the past, and therein lies the paradox.
