Reading math symbols and formulas in English!

Messaggioda gygabyte017 » 13/11/2011, 22:58

Hi to all,
most of math books that I studied recently were (of course) in English, so it's quite simple to learn the English math dictionary of written words (like "function", "set", "domain", "operator", "derivative", and many others); but if I try to read aloud, I realize that I have NO idea about how to read symbols!

So my question is: is there a pdf, or could you teach me how to say symbols and formulas like:
\( \displaystyle {x}+{y} \), \( \displaystyle {x}-{y} \), \( \displaystyle {x}\cdot{y} \), \( \displaystyle \frac{{x}}{{y}} \), \( \displaystyle {a}{x} \), \( \displaystyle {x}_{{0}} \), \( \displaystyle {x}_{{i}} \), \( \displaystyle {{x}_{{2}}^{{2}}} \), \( \displaystyle {{x}}^{{y}} \), \( \displaystyle {{e}}^{{y}} \), \( \displaystyle \sqrt{{x}} \), \( \displaystyle {x}={y} \), \( \displaystyle {x}\le{y} \), \( \displaystyle {x}\ge{y} \), \( \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}} \), \( \displaystyle {\left.{d}{x}\right.} \), \( \displaystyle {\int_{{a}}^{{b}}}{f{{\left({x}\right)}}}{\left.{d}{x}\right.} \), \( \displaystyle {f{:}}{A}\to{B} \), \( \displaystyle {A}\subseteq{B} \), \( \displaystyle {A}\supseteq{B} \), \( \displaystyle {A}\cup{B} \), \( \displaystyle {A}\cap{B} \), \( \displaystyle {\sum_{{{k}={0}}}^{{+\infty}}}{a}_{{k}} \), .... and many many others?

Thank you very much!
