You're saying that "Math" and "Language" are 'sets'? And that the phrase "Math is Language" should be interpreted as expressing the relationship between sets?

You're saying that "Math" and "Language" are 'sets'? And that the phrase "Math is Language" should be interpreted as expressing the relationship between sets? If we do want to talk sets, that seems far more interesting. The statements like "Math is a language", or "Math has equivalence classes within languages", or "Mathematics are a Language" are slightly more interesting to consider IMO. >> Math major here. > You say that like you think it's a qualification? Agree, appeal to authority fallacy. I take that over mis-framing any day though. Any old-timers might appreciate that we're arguing over the meaning of the word "is" =D
