摘要
世界上任何一种语言都植根于特定的文化背景之中，反映特定的文化内容。数字反映客观物质世界的规模、大小。由于不同语言中所包涵的文化传统、思维观念以及对数字的感知取向不同．故而数字被赋予的社会文化涵义也不尽相同。
Every language in the world takes root in a special cultural background, and the language reflects the contents of the culture. Figure is the count and quantity which reflects the scope and size of the objective world. The social meanings of figure are different because there are some differences in cultural tradition, the concept of thinking and the understanding and using of the figure among all kinds of languages.
