Mathematics=Just A Language?

The short answer is that it is simplistic to say so. That maths is a mere language has had a negative influence both to those who shun mathematics and to those overaly obsessed with it. A 'new ager' can be so much into quantum mechanics, relativity etc yet when one show one some maths and he brushes aside saying 'you are not speaking my language'. Of course if math was just a language, it would be a waste of time to learn another cumbusome language when we can speak English etc. Sadly, this is what some have in mind when they say 'math is just another man's language'. They find an exellent exuse to be ignorant of mathematics.What the hell do one mean by 'math is another man's language'? Mathematicians donnot say: 'give me a cup of coffee' using maths. Mathematicians have to use English etc when talking amongst themselves. A math book still has a large part of it written in English etc. So math is not just just a language.MATHEMATICSMathematics is a SPECIAL language for expressing special concepts termed QUANTITATIVE. So it is not just a language. It cannot express the QUALITATIVE concepts. There are abstract nonmathematical concepts such as the concept 'tend to'. Then if you are ignorant of maths, there are concepts that you won't grasp. It is not just a language, that is to say like if you are ignorant of Chinese, you need not worry as every concept in Chinese has its counterpart in English etc.You might think that a 'new ager' etc is the one that need this lesson. You are totally mistaken! Ironically, it is mathematical physicist that is the sickest patient! He has completely lost a clue of what math is and what physics is! For instance, just because mathematicians do geometry, it doesn't mean that geometry is entirely mathematical. While a mathematician will try to 'prove' that a table is flat by taking measurements and calculating, a physicists should know better. Mathematician will not try to answer a YES or NO question such as yes the table is flat or no, it is curved. He jumps ahead, to the question of HOW FLAT IT IS taking for granted the meaning of the word 'flat'. So one might correctly note that math is a language that takes nouns and adjectives for granted, focusing solely on ADVERBS. That is why a mathematician still cannot say 'give me a kiss' using math. He would rather fill the blackbord describing HOW the kiss is done or how it is!There are no true nouns in maths. Though you went to kindagarten carrying sticks etc, then count 2 sticks, 3 sticks etc, somewhere when the EFGH lesson came, the ABCD lesson was forgoten. You now henceforth dealt with the sureal 2, 3, 4 etc as though they where things on themselves! Thats why when a mathematician beholds a mangoe, he has no use of WHAT a mangoe is. He is already way ahead with HOW big it is! A mathematician deals whith 'hows' misrepresented as though they were 'whats'. As such maths donnot adress the truely 'what' questions. For instance 3 is realy not a what issue. It is an 'how' issue. It is an answer to an 'how' question and not a 'what' question.

  • So yes, according to group theory, one can form a math theory where kissing is a multiplication or something like that! All he need to do is to form a group whereby the state of the body during the kissing moment is a member, just as the number 2 is a member of intergers, pie is a member of real numbers, i is a member of complex numbers etc. One then might say yes, while kissing, you are also doing math but more subconsciously.

    If i do the math and you do the kiss, still from a deeper level, we can be doing the same thing!!
  • Ah! So nice to hear that!:)

    Now modern math, with set theory and group theory is very interesting. It has made it quite hard just to define what math is. Even mathematicians at first refused to accept set theory, claiming that it is not maths!

    So you might think that by doing a certain activity, you are not doing math when, according to modern math, you are infact doing math! Lets for instance take the case of rotating a book on the table. There is a strange corespondence between rotation and multiplication. Then a given state of the book corresponds to a number. We can, for instance, say that a book facing north corresponds to 2. Then a book facing south coresponds to 8 etc. A clockwise rotation corresponds to a multiplication by 4 etc. Anticlockwise rotation corresponds to division by 4 etc. So the activities of moving around, rotation etc is, from a deeper perspective, the same as multiplication, addition etc. The set of states in which objects can be found forms what is called a group.

    With this understanding of math, numbers become a special case of what is termed 'set'. Then what we tend to understand as math (dealing with numbers) is just a special case of a more general and deeper field termed set theory.
  • Kiss, Kiss, Kiss......I will do the kissing and you can do the math....lol
