Der Band umfasst 14 Beitrage zu Themen, die sich aus der gegenseitigen Beeinflussung der Mathematik und Sprachen ergeben. Behandelt werden lexikologische, semantische, pragmatische, semiotische und kognitive Probleme, aber auch praktische – translatorische, didaktische und lexikografische Aspekte, nicht zuletzt in kontrastiver Perspektive. Der Grossteil der Beitrage konzentriert sich auf den phraseologischen Bereich, da phraseologische Bestande verschiedener Sprachen reich an Wendungen mit mathematischen Komponenten sind.


The world of numbers, shapes and relations has always fascinated people, influencing the language in which they communicate. Likewise, mathematics needs language to verbalise its research area and transfer knowledge. The volume contains 14 papers concerning phenomena resulting from the mutual influence of mathematics and languages. The thematic scope includes lexicological, semantic, pragmatic, semiotic and cognitive issues as well as practical aspects such as translation, teaching or lexicography and contrastive studies. Large parts of the volume focuses in particular on phrasemes as the phraseological resources of many languages contain mathematical components.
