Parallel Universes and Parallel Dimensions

Parallel universes are whole universes, infinite in number and exactly the same as the one next to them except for one change. Moving across the infinite number of them, of course you can get to any change that you might want.

A dimension is completely different. A dimension is a characteristic of space/time. Something that is one dimensional is a line with one dimension, length, 2 dimensional, a geometric figure with two dimensions, width and height. We normally think of ourselves in moving in 3 dimensional space that is everything we see has 3 dimensions, height, width and depth. Einstein changed this picture by saying that we actually move in 4 dimensional space with the 4th dimension being time.

So moving into another dimension would really be moving into another aspect of this reality, but not seen and felt or sensed in any "normal" sense. We can't put a name on it because we can't sense it. We can only put a name on something what we can sense in some way.
