(中英文对照)两个老外回答,中国人都擅长数学吗?( 四 )

你只需要知道13个字符就可以数到99,999!人们说中文很难学

Understanding how the numbers work suddenly becomes a lot easier - it's IN THE LANGUAGE. Chinese provides the explanation.

突然间,理解这些数字是如何工作的就变得容易多了——这就是语言。中文给出了解释。

And this is even more apparent when it comes to fractions. Five seventeenths? Eight twelfths? How many kids have started to cry because they didn't understand fractions?

当涉及到分数时,这一点更加明显。5/17吗?8/12吗?有多少孩子因为不懂分数而开始哭泣?

Meanwhile, in Chinese 8/12ths would be 十二分之八 - from 12 pieces, take eight. Again, the language itself makes it easier to understand a complex mathematical concept.

与此同时,在中国8/12ths十二分之八——从12件,8。同样,语言本身使理解复杂的数学概念变得更容易。
