About Numbers in Math Textbooks for Classroom Teaching

Summary/Abstract: In Bosnian languge, numbers are co-depedent, mofiying words that belong to specific parts of speech. One of them belong to open word classes, the other ones are not subject to change, and the third kind are all the more frequently not declined even though they are prone to this change. They are expressed as a single-member and multi-member denomination, some of them as both, and some having double single-member denominations alongside the multimember ones. While multi-member terms do not have to contain the conjunction and in front of the last member, nouns serving as cardinal numbers are expresseddually, e. g. hiljada i tisuća (a thousand), milion i milijun (a million), bilion i bilijun (a billion), and „cumulative“ numbers (so-called „zbirni brojevi“ in Bosnian) and plural nouns can however have suffixes with oro and suffixes with ero. Due to the mentioned peculiarities of this part of speech, as well as due to the fact that math textbooks are the ones containing numbers and their shapes, this piece of work will be focused on an overview of features of numbers which are part of math textbooks for classroom teaching (from first to fifth grade of nine-year elementary schools operating on a curriculum in Bosnian language).
