A lot of
countries in the world have different language, but one language is the same
for everyone, the language with numbers. Mathematics is a language used to
describe various logical and processes. The most human language has ornamental
components, but in math, the orthography is independent. If you write:
1+1=2 OR
2=1+1
It doesn’t
matter. They are both the same. Mathematics is very similar to a computer
language. They are both evolving much faster than human languages and both are
much richer than any human language in existence. There are multiple ways of
expressing an idea or achieving a goal, but any statement can mean one and only
one thing. Assuming that you can read the language properly.
If you go to
America, Norway or china, they will all have the same math, and they can
communicate through numbers. It is some differences, but they have all the same
foundation. Independent of which country you go to, 1+1=2.
A circle
will also always be a circle and a square will always be a square. If you go to
another country, a circle will always be round, and a square will always have 4
corners.
Independent
from where you are from, pi will always be a number that never ends. 3.14 are
the number everyone use as a shorter way to write pi.
You have two
different ways to write numbers on, Arabic and roman. Why is it still the universal
language? If you have two apples, it is two even if you write it like 2 or II.
Numbers can’t change. If you have two, it will still be two no matter which language
you talk.
English:
one, two, three
Norwegian:
en, to, tre
France: un,
deux, trois
Chinese: 一,二,三
German:
eins, zwei, drei
When you
write the numbers with letters, they will change after which language you
speak. Measurement is also a thing that will change. In USA they use feet and
inches, and in Europe we use meters and centimeters.
Another
thing that is different from country to country is all the expressions. That is
the only thing that can make math harder after which country you are studying in.
