Number-vocabulary; the numbers associated with a subject or area of activity, or used by an individual person.
People have vocabularies—the words they use to describe and qualify their everyday lives. Having a word in a vocabulary means that a person knows its meaning, and uses it effectively in speaking and writing. People use words to qualify their experience, to give richness to their thoughts and speech.
People also have “numbularies,” or “number-vocabularies”—the numbers they use to measure and quantify their lives. They use their numbularies to count and measure, to compare and clarify—to quantify their experience and give precise structure and definite moorings to complement the qualitative power and dynamic motion of their words.
