    Are there analogues to verbs, nouns and adjectives in mathematics? My answer
    is yes. Let’s take a very simple mathematical equation "1+1=2". In words, the
    equation reads: one plus one is equal to two. Is not "1+1" analogues to a noun
    phrase, "=" to a verb phrase, and "2" to a noun? What do you guys think? Your
    comments are most appreciated.
