By comparison, you cannot understand English at all.  The claim by "Odd
Bodkin" was “light is a quantum field (and physicists say so)”.  This was
*wrong* to begin with and has been *disproved by their own references*.

Instead, light is a phenomenon that is currently understood to be a
self-propagating *excitation of* a field.  The field this phenomenon is *an
excitation of* is the *electromagnetic* field.  Its (field) quanta are
called “photons” (from the Greek word for “light”).
