Hi :)<p>I had a related idea a few years ago...<p>Multiplication might be a good way to associate nouns with adjectives, but isn&#x27;t kingship a quality of something? And what can we do about the confusion when the French King, a man, is also a woman?<p>How about:<p>Person is French King = (P.f.k) where k = royalty.manhood P.f.r.m We divide and multiply ~ Person is Martian Queen = P.m.r.w<p>Dogs might be added to owners eg: W+pug, and averages can be taken:<p>((W + dog.breed1) + (W + dog.breed2) + (W + dog.breed3) + (W + dog.breed4) &#x2F; 4) = 4W&#x2F;4 + the dogs = W + incomprehensible remainder<p>Perhaps there&#x27;s a use for it all. Logistics maybe? Whether by the PM&#x27;s system or mine, grammar can certainly be encoded in arithmetic-like forms.<p>Maybe it&#x27;s just the way we think.
