The pictographic nature of the Chinese writing system helps to inspire the thinking ability of children. Their intelligence develops better while they learn the characters.36 I ani a retired Chinese language teacher from Malaysia. From my experiences， I have long noticed that Chinese medium-educated students always excel in mathematics as compared with those taught in other languages.

　　The words for numerals are all monosyllabic (单音节的)) in Chinese.

　　In contrast, their equivalents (对应词) in Malay have two or three syllables， like sa -tu， du-a，ti-ga， em-pat，li-ma，e-nant

　　38 　Their English equivalents – one，two， three,，four， five, six， seven，eight，

　　nine. ten. hundred， thousand， million - include multi-syllabic words， too.

　　Children easily find that it is in the Chinese language that they can do the job fastest. Children taught in Chinese find it easier to learn numerals and can do their calculations much faster. This has been repeatedly proved by reports on Chinese-rnedium-educated students

　　winning prizes in international Mathematics Olympiads.

　　Mathematics has a lot to do with IQ tests, as it is well proved that children good at numbers tend to have a stronger reasoning ability.

　　Teach the children Chinese so that they can think in the language.
