The article deals with the perceptions of Mathematics as a language of pre-service teachers of Mathematics in a College of Education in Israel. The formal language of studying in the College of Education is Hebrew. The goals of the study were to examine the perceptions of pre-service teachers on the following issues: the language components involved in learning Mathematics, the basic cognitive skills required for learning Mathematics, and the perception of Mathematics as a language (PML). Findings indicated that due to new attitudes in mathematical training, pre-service teachers of Mathematics perceived Mathematics as a language regarding all language components.

This study explores the relations between mathematics and the natural human language. At the very outset, a general definition of language was, given while it was attempted to make some comparisons between the words of natural language and mathematical symbols at that. Besides, the occupation of natural language functions within mathematics was handled. Consequently, it was tried to manifest that the language of mathematics enjoys the features of natural language as well. Mathematics makes use of many functional and structural features. The fact that fundamental ingredient of mathematics is symbols does not change this reality.

We observed the symptoms that occur to students who dislike mathematics when they study mathematics and the data that mathematics is related to foreign language. This study investigated the relation between mathematics and foreign language. Continuous immersion aids not only in acquiring language but also in learning mathematics. For continuous immersion, it is essential to organize small class. We organized small class and compared large class with small class about how the relation between mathematics and language appears in achievement, rate of presence, rate of submission of report, and attitude and enthusiasm. Based on the result, we try to find out the way to increase understanding mathematics and level up the achievements.

Mathematics educators have emphasized the importance of language use in mathematics education. However, previous studies have predominantly focused on the spoken language used in mathematics classrooms, which provides limited information on the written language used by mathematics teachers. The written language reflects the characteristics of the teacher community and social, cultural, and political contexts. Moreover, the written language affects teachers' instructional practices and their students' mathematics learning experiences. Therefore, this study aims to review a study conducted by Lee and Kim (2022) investigating changes in mathematics teachers' pedagogical lexicons.

The study is about the influence of literal, symbolic and graphics languages on mathematics reading. The results show that the scores of symbolic language volume are significantly lower than that of literal language volume. The abstractness of the mathematical symbols will not have a significant impact on the students with excellent mathematical academic, but as for the medium and poor students, abstract mathematics symbols will cause their cognitive impairment. Due to picture-superiority-effect, the test scores of the graphics language volume are significantly higher than that of the symbolic language volume. Graphics language will have a significant impact on the excellent and medium students, but has no impact on the poor students.

Communicating about mathematics is an essential component in learning mathematics and is a key standard for successful learning in a mathematics classroom using stories and storytelling as a catalyst to mathematics instruction. This, however, can make learning math for students with language deficiencies since they are working toward mastering both basic language proficiency as well as the specialized language needed for mathematics. This is a particular concern because the number of students of multicultural families is rapidly increasing. In this paper, we discuss the challenges and complexities of language-deficient students learning math in a classroom where communication is a key standard for successful learning, and suggest implications for teaching, by presenting an USA elementrny teacher's scaffolding to make reading and solving word problems less intimidating for her language learner students as well as native speaking students.

수학교육은 수학을 읽고, 쓰고, 듣고, 말하면서 이루어진다. 즉, 수학을 한다는 것은 수학적으로 사고한다는 것을 의미한다. 따라서 자국어로 잘 쓰인 수학 교재를 읽고, 자국어로 수학을 토론하며 배우게 되면, 그 내용과 개념을 더욱 깊이 이해하고 자연스럽게 활용하게 된다. 수학 선진국들의 경우, 대학 학부 수학 교재는 대부분 자국어로 쓰인 양질의 교재를 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 대학수학교육에서 사용하는 교재와 언어가 국가 수학 경쟁력에 미치는 영향에 대하여 논한다. 특히 대학의 설립 초기부터 자국어 교재의 중요성을 인지하여 대학수학 교재를 모두 히브리어로 최초 개발한 이스라엘 공과대학(테크니온)의 언어전쟁 사례와 양질의 자국어 대학수학 교재를 발간하면서 수학 선진국에 이르게 된 프랑스, 미국 및 일본 등의 사례를 분석하여 소개한다.

A definition of finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with intuitionistic fuzzy (final) states is proposed. Acceptance of intuitionistic fuzzy regular language by the finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with intuitionistic fuzzy (final) states are examined. It is found that the finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with intuitionistic fuzzy (final) states is more suitable for recognizing intuitionistic fuzzy regular language than earlier model. The paper also gives an idea of intuitionistic fuzzy regular expressions through possible definitions.

In this paper, a definition of interval-valued fuzzy regular language (IVFRL) is proposed and their related properties studied. A model of finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with interval-valued fuzzy transitions is proposed. Acceptance of interval-valued fuzzy regular language by the finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with interval-valued fuzzy transitions are examined. Moreover, a definition of finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with interval-valued fuzzy (final) states is proposed. Acceptance of interval-valued fuzzy regular language by the finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with interval-valued fuzzy (final) states are also discussed. It is observed that, the model finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with interval-valued fuzzy (final) states is more suitable than the model finite automaton (DFA and NDFA) with interval-valued fuzzy transitions for recognizing the interval-valued fuzzy regular language. In the end, interval-valued fuzzy regular expressions are defined. We can use the proposed interval-valued fuzzy regular expressions in lexical analysis.

Practice of proof is considered in, the view of language and meta-mathematics, recognizing the role of proof that is the means of communication and development of mathematical understanding. Linguistic components in proof texts are symbol, verbal language and visual text, and contain the implicit knowledge in the meta-mathematics view. This study investigates the functions of linguistic elements according to Halliday's functional grammar and the rhetoric skills in proof texts in math textbook, teacher's note, and student's written text. We need to inquire into the aspects of language for mathematics learning process and the understanding and use of students' language.
