QUESTION
How is the set "A union B" read in German? Is it "Die Vereinigung von A und B" or "A vereinigt mit B"?
(Also, is there some place that describes how mathematical expressions are read in German?)
ANSWER
Both is correct.
The "Vereinigungsmenge" is read as:
- A vereinigt mit B or
- Die Vereinigung(or Vereinigungsmenge) von A und B
Consequently, the "Schnittmenge" is read as:
- A geschnitten mit B or
- Die Schnittmenge von A und B
Wikipedia is indeed a great place to start, but I also suggest – in case you're interested in maths – to watch lectures on Youtube. I can really recommend, for example, the videos of Christian Spannagel.
