Math-English Dictionary
If you ever encounter a word on my blog that you don't know, please contact me through the comments or by email, and I will add the "translation" in this dictionary.
E
expression - a combination of terms. They can be combined using all the operations. Expressions, unlike equations do not have an equal sign, and are not "solve-able". For example, 3x+2y-4xy is an expression.

T
term - a number and a variable together. For example, 3x - where 3 is the coefficient, and x is the variable. If you think you have a variable without a coefficient, remember, the coefficient of x is 1, so x is still a "term."
V
V
variable - a letter that represents a number that can change. For example, the variable x can be any number. It doesn't represent a specific number, but rather represents "any number"
