eigentime

Waarom wordt in het engels vaak de term 'eigentime' gebruikt? Vaak zie je ook wel propertime (wiki), maar zou er een Nederlander die term bedacht hebben of zo? Ik vind het wel apart.
At the start of the 20th century, Hilbert studied the eigenvalues of integral operators by viewing the operators as infinite matrices.[17] He was the first to use the German word <i>eigen</i>, which means "own", to denote eigenvalues and eigenvectors in 1904,[18] though he may have been following a related usage by Helmholtz. For some time, the standard term in English was "proper value", but the more distinctive term "eigenvalue" is standard today.
