An example is a book of exercises, described on the back cover: This book contains almost 350 exercises in the basics of ring theory. The problems form the "folklore" of ring theory, and the solutions are given in as much detail as possible. [2] Another distinct category is well-knowable mathematics, a term introduced by John Conway. [3]
The language of mathematics has a wide vocabulary of specialist and technical terms. It also has a certain amount of jargon: commonly used phrases which are part of the culture of mathematics, rather than of the subject. Jargon often appears in lectures, and sometimes in print, as informal shorthand for rigorous arguments or precise ideas. Much ...

Another term used for informal mathematics is folk mathematics, which is ambiguous; the mathematical folklore article is dedicated to the usage of that term among professional mathematicians. The field of naïve physics is concerned with similar understandings of physics. People use mathematics and physics in everyday life, without really ...
In mathematics education, ethnomathematics is the study of the relationship between mathematics and culture. [1] Often associated with "cultures without written expression", [2] it may also be defined as "the mathematics which is practised among identifiable cultural groups". [3]
Folk theorem or folklore theorem may refer to: Mathematical folklore, theorems that are widely known to mathematicians but cannot be traced back to an individual; Folk theorem (game theory), a general feasibility theorem; Ethnomathematics, the study of the relationship between mathematics and culture
The language of mathematics or mathematical language is an extension of the natural language (for example English) that is used in mathematics and in science for expressing results (scientific laws, theorems, proofs, logical deductions, etc.) with concision, precision and unambiguity.
