E.g. do people in Greece still use 'x' to denote an unknown, or the horizontal axis of a chart, or do they use Chi? Is 'G' the universal gravitational constant even in Russian?
So obviously the Roman numerals are I, V, X, C, D, L, and so on. So if I wanted to write the number 22, in Roman numerals it would be XXII. This system is logical but remarkably unwieldy compared to Arabic numerals. Doing addition and subtraction may be possible, but higher maths like Algebra and Calculus seem all but impossible when writing numbers like this.
And of course, the Romans did not have 0.
How did this affect their ability to do math? Were there any Roman mathematicians or advances in the field during Roman times?
I mean this: suppose a new product is launched in a west society and called "rumpa". Will japanese and other countries using symbolic languages like korean and chinese, use the word "rumpa" or create ideograms to say that? If they use the original spelling with our letters how native people that do not know our letters will say that word?
this is a joke mostly im sure he knows more about it than i do. but im sick of it!
And it's not a second bag... Heard about this way vs an honest suicidal feeling? Is it as a kid that was recently posted showing the inputs and values.

So some years ago I figured out my mind makes numbers to have a certain personalities - like 1 is a stubborn loner, 7 is a sneaky seducer, 5 is a bit of poser with good heart and so on and so on...
Also I think it is the reason I struggle with higher mathematics, consider this:
A) 9 - 7 = 2;
B) y = (8 + sin(x))/(log(x) - 7);
For me (A) is some sort of relationship triangle - emotions and personalities involved - but nothing too exhausting.
However (B) is almost Game Of Thrones - multi level political machinations with love and betrayal. And this is just school maths - at uni - integrals, matrixes etc - it was just too much ;) - imagine a GOT, SW, Matrix, Mahabharata crossover in 7 dimensions.
So the struggle to solve equation - its not enough just to do the logic, it is also this 'drama' overcast on top of it, that takes away concentration, speed and energy.
Can anyone relate to this? Or I am only like this in the whole Universe? :)
Thanks!
