(06-22-2018 01:17 PM)Don Shepherd Wrote: As a math teacher of kids who are first learning about operations that include decimal numbers (grades 6 or 7), we teach them to let the word "and" represent the decimal point when they pronounce numbers. So pronunciation of integers will never have the word "and," and pronunciation of decimal numbers will have exactly one "and", pronounced at the decimal point. But what is the point of teaching kids a convention that doesn't match how people speak in the real world? Does anyone not pronounce 18.7 as "eighteen point seven"? |
