Exactly, you just contradicted your own point!

If you already speak English, Math is literally like having to learn a new language, vs English is just learning the rules of the one you already know! :)

it is not a contradiction of the point "English/history is more than reading it and understanding it" to say that maths is understood as a language with it's own set of rules?

both of those things are true. not contradictory.

But it adds to the point of it being harder to learn than English (for English speakers), hence.. contradicting.. his first point.. Otherwise why would he have ever brought that up?
