Subject: Mathematical Terms for Japanese students

For the first time this semester I have two students newly arrived from
Japan enrolled in College Algebra. The major barrier seems to be language
rather than mathematical background--they have difficulty with American
mathematical terms. Does anyone have a source that relates Japanese and
American mathematical terms and symbols? We do have a faculty member from
Japan,m who knows the problem but doesn't have any such resource. Thanks,
Carol Stewart, Alfred State College
