Time in the 4th dimension

Is it true that time doesn't exist in the 4th dimension? A friend said that time in the 4th dimension constantly moves back and forth. So in other words, no species can live in that dimension, right?

RE:Time in the 4th dimension

Sorry, Aki, but I don't know any theory where what you said happens. There's no basis to assert that a 4-th dimensional universe has no time, even because string theory is formulated in 10 dimensions and time exists
in that theory.

RE:Time in the 4th dimension

If you apply the laws of particle physics to the fouth dimension which is time then the only way that time would not exist is if you were a wavelength traveling through a complete vacuum free from the obstuction of all other wavelengths.
