Examples: Even: can be written as 2n, where n is an integer. Even (if): make flat or smooth, or to show extreme degree. Series: the sum of the terms of an infinite sequence.

   What is the difference between 'generally not' and 'not generally'?

   • Haha, it gets more confusing when I am negating the word: 'generally not' could mean either never or seldom (depending on whether the mathematical or non-mathematical meaning is being understood), while 'not generally' could mean either "often" or "sometimes" (due to the same ambiguity). This can get quite some list… Here are a few:

   Do you know math terms?

   • Believe it or not, there are a lot of words in math — and if you don’t know them, it’s going to be hard to work with the numbers they describe. An understanding of basic math terms goes a long way, no matter if you consider yourself a “math person” or not.

   What does 'generally' mean?

   • In every-day non mathematical discussions, if someone makes a claim and says it is true in general, they mean it is true most of the time but with possibly a few exceptional cases. Exactly the opposite of the mathematical meaning! Mathematicians often use "generically" to mean essentially what nonmathematicians mean by "generally".

   What does arbitrarily mean in math?

   • In general, “arbitrarily” is a foundational term in number theory and mathematical analysis, and can also occur in other topics where some form of degree and ordering are involved (e.g., polynomial ring). Don’t make the mistake in assuming that “arbitrarily” means “infinitely”!

   What does obvious mean in math?

   • A term which shortcuts around calculation the mathematician perceives to be tedious or routine, accessible to any member of the audience with the necessary expertise in the field; Laplace used obvious (French: évident). commonly reserved for jokes (puns on complete induction).

   What does almost no integer mean?

   • “ Almost no integer” usually means “only a finite subset of integers.” “A property holds almost everywhere (in a measure space)” usually means “everywhere in a set except a subset of measure zero.” “An event occurs almost surely ” usually means that “the event has a probability of 1, even though it does not include all of the possible outcomes.”
