Words are not numbers, but words are like number. The spoken word is a bunch of sounds that symbolize concepts. The written word are scripts on a page that symbolize concepts. The number is a bunch of spoken or transcribed symbols that represent quantities.

Both concepts and quantities have something to do with reality.

You’re getting really hung up on this. I’m saying that all truth is objective and absolute, something our civilization reserve only to mathematics.
