Math vs Language

     Learning is one of the important thing in our life. Even when we were young, we have to learn how to speak, how to walk, how to run, and even playing a game. Without learning we can’t survive from this life. Although animals, they have to learn to survive in their habitat. But have you ever heard of learnig language and learnig math? Does it have differences? Or maybe It’s just the same thing? To know about it, we have to compare both of them, whether it have differences or similarities.

     We knew that language and math are looking very different, but I wonder what kind of differences it is? Is it because the formula? Or it’s because the opinion of people that math is difficult while language is not difficult as math. Let have look into it, Math and language have the differences in some part of learnig. The first part is the ambigiousness of language, language has a lot of meanings in one sentence it does not have the exact meaning, different person different interpretation, but it is not always different in some situation, for example “Aldi want to take a bath”, so the definition is the same which is “Aldi want to take a bath”. Reverse, math has the certainty of the answer for the example 2+2 = 4, so the answer wouldn’t be changed until the end of life. The second part is the perfection of math, math is the subject which is difficult to learn for some people. The reason is, We must be thorough to answer the question if we lose one formula or incorrect calculating so it will mess up the answer. Whereas, language does not really need the accuracy of grammar, if we talk to the people we don’t really need the grammar, if they are understood what we talk, that probably enough.  

     Math and Language also have the similarities. Both of the is complicated so we need to practice to be master on it so we can use it in our life. With practice we will know more about the related math and languages in our daily life. And also both of them have the same method, both of them need formula, as we know if we want to calculate the integration we need formula to solve it, same as language if we want to make sentence using past perfect form, we need formula to make it.

    Math and Language can’t be seperated we need both of them in our life. Even it has the differences but it has one aim which is to solve the problem. Without language and math we can’t communicate and understanding the problem. It is very important for engineering student, whenever they do the research they have to be good at language and math.
