👉 Tongue math is a playful, informal method of performing arithmetic operations using the English language, often with humorous or creative twists. It involves replacing numbers and symbols with words to make calculations more engaging and memorable. For example, "7 + 5" might become "seven five," "12 times three" could be "twelve times three equals thirty-six," and "2.5 hours is 2 hours and 30 minutes" might be "two point five hours is two point fifty." This approach not only makes math more accessible and fun but also encourages creative thinking and can be a great tool for learning and teaching basic arithmetic to those who might find traditional methods less appealing.
