I definitely have an interest in both, and a facility for Mathematics.  As for language ability I'm not so sure.  I took French immersion early on and was good enough to think it fluently, but since then almost all of my vocabulary has been forgotten.  Since then I've taken a little German, and am taking Latin, and again have trouble keeping a full vocab.  At least when I got lost in Paris I could find my way.

Three things I really like are etymologies, phonetics, and alphabets.  I wonder if you tend to go for the same things?  My best friend's also good at math and languages, so either it's not so unusual or we just attract each other. :)

'''A.''' I named it MathematicalGrouP because it was the first entry in Math and I wanted

I have degrees in both Math and Linguistics. In Math, I like Abstract Algebra best; in Linguistics, I like Syntax best. Like you, I started French early, in third grade, and continued through college. I have also studied German, Latin, Greek, and Japanese.
Latin and Greek are great tools if you are interested in English or Romance etymology.
Picking up on your interest in phonetics, we could surely use your help at Nupedia in the CopyeditAME-L and Pronounce-L lists, to help provide pronunciations for our articles. I hope I am not intruding with this last remark.

As a member of Nupedia, you would have to sign-up for the Copyedit-L, Copyeditame-L and Pronounce-L lists and look at and get comfortable using our AME prounciation guide at:
http://www.nupedia.com/pronguide.shtml
or possibly the Copyeditbre-L, as well, and then look at and learn to use our BRE prounciation Guide
at:
http://www.nupedia.com/pronguidebre.html

We have a at least one article, already posted and some in the works that have no pronunciations for unfamiliar words and foreign words, simply because there is no one to supply them, using these guides. Such articles can be found in the main page of Nupedia, under New Articles, and in the Copyediting area which you will find a link to, after logging in, on you member page. Look for articles under open copyedit area. If you have any questions, feel free. As usual this is purely voluntary. RoseParks

I took French immersion early on and was good enough to think it fluently, but since then almost all of my vocabulary has been forgotten.  Since then I've taken a little German, and am taking Latin, and again have trouble keeping a full vocab.  At least when I got lost in Paris I could find my way.

Three things I really like are etymologies, phonetics, and alphabets.  I wonder if you tend to go for the same things?  My best friend's also good at math and languages, so either it's not so unusual or we just attract each other. :)

P.S. Why didn't you call MathematicalGrouP, just GrouP?----

First things last...

'''A.''' I named it MathematicalGrouP because it was the first entry in Math and I wanted  
readers to know what kind of group I was talking about.

I have degrees in both Math and Linguistics. In Math, I like Abstract Algebra best; in Linguistics, I like Syntax best. Like you, I started French early, in third grade, and continued through college. I have also studied German, Latin, Greek, and Japanese.
Latin and Greek are great tools if you are interested in English or Romance etymology.
Picking up on your interest in phonetics, we could surely use your help at Nupedia in the Copyeditame-L and Pronounce-L lists, to help provide pronunciations for our articles. I hope I am not intruding with this last remark.

Of course you're not.  As I said, I have copious amounts of free time on my hands.  What exactly would that involve?  (Btw, I suspect liking AbstractAlgebra best is almost as rare as math-linguistics - virtually everyone I know is an analysis fan).

At the moment we have Prounciation Guides for American English and British English.
All articles to date are identified as written in one of these languages.
As a member of Nupedia, you would have to sign-up for the Copyedit-L, Copyeditame-L and Pronounce-L lists. These are available for sign-up from your member page under Mailing Lists. Also, you would have to look at and get comfortable using our AME prounciation guide at:
http://www.nupedia.com/pronguide.shtml
You might be interested in the Copyeditbre-L list, as well. Here you need to look at and learn to use our BRE prounciation Guide at:
http://www.nupedia.com/pronguidebre.html

We have  at least one article, already posted and some in the works that have no pronunciations for unfamiliar words and foreign words, simply because there is no one to supply them, using these guides. Such articles can be found in the main page of Nupedia, under New Articles, and in the Copyediting area which you will find a link to, after logging in, on you member page. Look for articles in the Open Copyedit area. If you have any questions, feel free. As usual this is purely voluntary. RoseParks

Ok, if you want me to have a HomePage...JoshuaGrosse is a student of pure mathematics with a distinct over-abundance of spare time.  He figured that it wouldn't hurt, therefore, to spend some of it just randomly smashing things he knows into WikiPedia.  Interests include maths, sciences, and histories.----

Hello, Joshua....I am the wikipedian from whose MathematicalGrouP page you have taken off, mathematically speaking. I'd like to know more about you...

''Hi!  Unfortunately you picked someone on whom there's not to much to say.  What do you want to know?  I'm from Calgary, am currently at the UniversityOfWaterloo.  I've spent most of my life learning about things, but of course that doesn't mean I'm any good at writing about them.  Mathematics is an old interest, which springs out of the discovery of graphs on a summer vacation...I actually bothered to plot x^3+y^3=1 by hand just to see it...these are all very old memories.''

'''Q.''' Why do you call what I call a "mapping" a "map"?--RoseParks

''When you use a term all the time, you tend to pick the shortest version.  It never occured to me to use mapping, though now that I check that's the version most texts use.  They're either identical, or maybe a mapping has a definite codomain (as opposed to just anything that includes the range).  Feel free to change it.''----

'''Q.''' One of the things I am wondering is if you, like myself, have an interest in/ facility for Mathematics, as well as Linguistics and Languages? It appears to be a somewhat unusual combination. 

I definitely have an interest in both, and a facility for Mathematics.  As for language ability I'm not so sure.  I took French immersion early on and was good enough to think it fluently, but since then almost all of my vocabulary has been forgotten.  Since then I've taken a little German, and am taking Latin, and again have trouble keeping a full vocab.  At least when I got lost in Paris I could find my way.
