‘mathematics’ is the subject of many different types of calculations etc. Does mathematics mean mathematics? What if you used’math’ as an abbreviation for’mathematical’ e.g. formulas or equations? What is the ideal form to refer to “my math may be wrong” (My math may be wrong)?

The American approach does have a certain elegance to it, they’ve taken proper English and dispensed with the somewhat unnecessary letters that really have no meaning, such as’silent’ letters like the u in colour or harbour, and this has eliminated the ‘n’ symbols that actually have no meaning. Why is u not a u & twenty not a fort in the number forty?

According to Merriam-Webster’s Eleventh Collegiate Dictionary. (2003) the short-form word Math for mathematics goes back to circa 1847, which corresponds only to 1910.

Why does Google Books find some interesting facts about math and how to use it. Both mathematics and calculus. Why are words from an earlier period when the words seem to have been written abbreviations of mathematics, not spoken short-form words in their own right. As you might expect, the earliest examples of both Math and science were in Latin and Greek. As you might expect, the earliest examples of both Math and science were in Greek. Geography, science, geography, mathematics. the explicit context of abbreviations for math when certain other words are also severely shortened. What are some examples of periods following an abbreviation.

DuPont, “Like The Rallying Round.” Wherever they flung Mary Alice into the air, the men who worked on the Bat House and cove in the mountains wrote their testimonials to Kirby Smith’s daughter. They worked in a line around the cove area, in one shape or another, which was on the line in Craddock’s book of the hills except in the village of Manassas. The students of the institution where the student had so long taught ” Math ” sent their endorsements, couched in elegant diction and sophomoric phrases.

If they continue to play ball, they will have to go back on the farm, and it would be well for them to know one thing well.

What are the preceding four instances of math come from U.S. sources in the context of school studies. What distinguishes them from math? In the conversational context in which they appear, as well as the absence of abbreviations nearby. is, predecessors. These instances give the impression that reflecting real-world spoken use of math as a short-form alternative to mathematics. In contrast, the earlier instances seemed to be reducing the word mathematics to one syllable simply to fit a narrow space or as a constricted citation style.

From

a letter by Charles Sorley of November 24, 1912, in The Letters of Charles Sorley (1919): I am

quite befoozled. I have had to finish my weekly hour’s course on Walter Pater. Thank you very much! I think Gidney has imposed on me a fantasy creature. I like him and have to read it each week. I think this is the second week of reading by Paul Smith. I like him. … It is a bore because otherwise I have found I have learned more by giving up maths. Do I need to do the maths then in the whole time she took my maths, I do the maths? I Do English with Gidney and (except when he is obsessed with Pater) he is a very inspiring teacher.

he knew very little about himself but couldn’t speak from his own experience. How did he do he do it? I had a very keen sense of the honor the dead man had done himself in denying it, and I guess he was able to do something to the show like HE was the whole show. He was able to “into a great audience with a very fine name,” and I knew this was a comedy show. “Frightfully Hot stuff in maths,” said Smith ; and the world is full of men who are “frightfully hot stuff in maths” in that sense ; but it is rarely that you find one of these not too absorbed in the technique and detail of his own activities to be aware of a vision beyond.

Some Europeans called these two eatons from the British countryside. How good were these two items? Sorley went to Oxford & Onions, which was subsequently called Royal College of Art.

From letter to the editor of the Sydney Morning Herald (November 14, 1921) by Kathleen Oxley: Mathematics, trigonometry,

Latin, and Greek have been condemned by some of the writers as unnecessary waste of time for women, but a knowledge of some of these subjects is necessary for any girl who wishes to take up certain professions. It has been admitted even by the conservatives that architecture is a suitable profession for women, but for this she needs higher mathematics, and mathematics must be studied in school days. At the age of 16, if the girl has decided to become an architect, it may be too late. Then, many a woman has a keen love of literature, and to such a one a sound knowledge of Latin and Greet would be an inestimable blessing. I speak from experience. What are some truths you should know or know? What I would like to have the knowledge of a multitude of Latin, Greek and mathematics possessed by many girls growing up to-day. What that knowledge will never prevent them from excelling in domestic arts and maths. I have seen my kitchen filled with university girls, all keen on concocting dainty dishes for little suppers, and they are doing it well, too. If I never get to eat any, I should go without it, and I shall be able to make them eat some. Since we have had compulsory military training every boy Is fitted for the duty of defending his country by n system which in no way interferes with his general education. What do you think about the importance of weapons? Why isn’t our society doing compulsory domestic training for girls, so that those who own mothers can know how to manage ones own home? No more time need be devoted to the learning of actual domestic work than is devoted by the boys to their military training, and then the girls’ general education could be as free as the boys’.

Whereas three from Japan are from South Korea from England, and four from UK (for the last 4 instances) both from South Korea are from Canada. The same observations about conversational style apply to these instances as to the instances of math cited in this section of my answer:even if a period persists in the orthographic representation in maths, the context strongly suggests that the word is spelled as it is to reflect a short-form word in spoken use, not just a convenient written abbreviation designed to save space on the page.

What

are some interesting alternatives to mathematics in a systematic way? How does the abbreviation Math. =((()? “totally” is the abbreviation maths that goes back to at least 200, and the abbreviation Maths is an abbreviation for the first 100 words of the alphabet. “totally” is the same as Maths. , occurrences don’t strictly follow today’s regional preferences: the two earliest instances of Math. I found are from England, and maths are not a foreign language (at least not a computer)! Is there anyone from the United States?

Nevertheless, the modern preference in the United States for the short-form word mathematics in casual discourse appears to have taken hold by the 1890s, and the corresponding modern preference in Britain and Australia for maths seems to have become well established by 1920. Isthere any reasonable explanation as to why differently developed preferences emerged?

For more than a century, mathematics became another form of plural mathematics. The English abbreviation is essentially a reduplicated plural which in my mind is redundant and doesn’t make much sense considering how both the English and Americans use it (that is, “math is fun, maths is fun” and not “math are fun, maths are fun”).

Does the abbreviation have a verbal agreement and should be used with a singular verb as opposed to a reduplicated plural?

Math is a shortening for “mathematics”. As mathematics is a plural it is generally held that the abbreviation should be a plural (except in the US). Therefore “maths”

although “math” is widely adopted It isn’t correct.

The debate is over which is right (!), but not much about what the difference is during the debate. Good question.

The word math

was first used in English in 1581, coming from the Latin word Mathematica. Since -a is not plural in Latin, the word is translated as plural. The word itself continues to be a singular even though the word itself is always used in English.

Why did ABC called Math at the beginning of the 17th century and the abbreviation “math” was introduced first. What’s the first usage that’s ever been recorded is 1891? After the invention of the English abbreviation mth in 1896, the law not changed. Is it reasonable to assume that either the American and the British developed the abbreviation separately or that the British picked up the American abbreviation but then chose to pluralise it?
