We may be confused while reading the following sentence: \u201cFind the arglif of a nopkam if the betdosyn is 12\u201d (Molina, 2012). However, we may be less confused when knowing that the sentence means \u201cFind the area of a circle if the diameter is 12\u201d. We may have strong mathematics, but we will not be able to solve the question if we do not find the first sentence meaningful. This may be the same confusion faced by students while encountering a certain mathematic concept, facing an unfamiliar idea contained in an unfamiliar word.<\/p>\n
