Math-universal language?

I agree that mathematics is a universal language, where almost all parts of the world can understand it. Numbers do not require language but rather, everyone understands that 2 means 2. And that 2+2=4. Because there is no other way to interpret it, all parts of the country can agree in the understanding of what mathematics is and how it works.

However, even though mathematics is a universal language, learning it can be difficult when placed in an environment where one does not speak the language. Hence, even though mathematics is understood by all, it cannot be easily taught when two or multiple people do not speak the same language. Especially with theoretical mathematics, language plays a larger role in interpreting the mathematics.

Science and mathematics are straight forward and less about interpretation but still take a large require a good amount of understanding of a language. Mathematics still requires a form of communication that at first, can be pure numbers but eventually need a form of language to communicate the meaning of the math.
