I. Characteristics
Mathematical language can be divided into abstract mathematical language and intuitive mathematical language, including mathematical concepts, terms, symbols, formulas, graphics and so on. Mathematical languages can be divided into three categories: written languages, symbolic languages and graphic languages.
Each form of mathematical language has its own advantages, such as strict concept definition and revealing essential attributes; Terminology is introduced into Science and Nature, and the system is complete and standardized; Symbols are concise, easy to write and concentrate on expressing mathematical content; The formula dissolves the relationship in form, which is helpful for operation and thinking. The graphic representation is intuitive and helpful to remember, think and solve problems.
As a basic part of mathematical theory, mathematical language has "high abstraction, strict logic and wide application". Simply put, mathematical language is scientific, concise and universal.
Second, psychological process.
It refers to the process from learning mathematical language to mastering mathematical language, which often varies from person to person. Mathematical symbols and rules get meaning from the real world and act on reality in a wider range.
Only when students understand the context and meaning of mathematical language, master various usages of mathematical language and gain a rational understanding can they describe it flexibly in various equivalent ways in mathematics learning and use it correctly in an abstract symbol system, thus reaching the highest level of learning mathematical symbol language.
