Using 'werld' strikes mee as too aulbefoalding. Quoaþeþ Oxford English Dictionary: 'the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy.' The closest overbringing I can þink of is 'phenomenonlore,' but þat's too wordy.

As for 'mathematics,' Ie knoe ðat at ðe time 'mathematics' bekameþ 'wiskunde' in Dutch, 'wis' menteþ 'þat which is known,' making it a loanoaverbringing frum Greekish 'mathema,' meaning 'ðat whitch is learned.' Now þat Ie þink uv it, ðoe, Ie þink ðat ðe best term wöd be 'reckenkraft,' as, too me, mathematics is a bit more about krafting ðan just learning.
