All the languages that use the latin (I hope I'm not wrong) numerical system which is: 1, 2, 3,......, obviously has a concordance in the value of each number.
but what happens with other languages or cultures which use a different numerical system (or different kind of symbols for numbers), are their values of the numbers the same as ours? TLW |

it would depend if their counting system was based on the digital method of 1 - 10 fingers as the standard. Myself, I use the toes too method, then I can get to twenty if I have my shoes off.

Math is universal language. ![]() it is only universal because it has been agreed to on our planet, and certain procedures and analysis have been codified. There is no type of analysis nor proof that 1 + 1 = 2, except that someone somewhere said so, and it has been accepted, or that 1 divided by zero is undefined, except that someone said so. |

Math is universal. Regardless of the pronunciation or how it is written in a language, any given number has the same value in all.

A categorically incorrect statement. 1+1 has been proven to equal two. And and one divided by zero IS defined. The result is zero. |

Hebrew is 23 letters i believe. eash number means way more than a number. Ps. 119 has all the numbers laid out to the different thought about it. you will see the heading of each number spelled out in a english word through out it. Miles
