They are from Alchemy, the Egyptian African supernatural science

Those are laboratory equipment and apparatus na ...abi wetin them dey call am...u will see pipette... Bunsen burner conical flask, round bottom flask..flat bottom flask .. test tube etc

Why was it in quotes though? I don’t think anyone ever spelt it as “masset”.

ITK

You don't know when they put words in quote?? Omo una too dey do for this online space...

SisterAnn:
Nowadays children don't even know what "masset" is.

Then, if you had one, you feel and look important.

When it now cost 5k, how will they know?
How many parents can afford to buy it for their children.

Say "Maths Set"

And still they wouldnt get it.

If you are a science student and you attend practical class such. As chemistry, or biology, you don't need anybody to tell you those are scientific laboratory symbols

ALLNIGERIANSMAD:
if you are a science student, you will know 90% of what most of those signs meant.

I used it in secondary sch around 2004,and I never had any idea wat it was

If you used this mathematical tool In secondary and you're still single,u need match making ASA

You people and this your match making thing self. My kids in primary and secondary Schools are still using this thing. It's not as if it has gone into extinction.

Abi my kids too need match making?

By the way If you're in science class, you don't need to be told before knowing almost all those things there

I know the meaning as a science student in my secondary school days I know .

SisterAnn:
You clearly saw the masset was in quote. ITK.

That is if he/she understands the use of quotation sign in the English grammar 😂

meobizy:
Honestly, why were we given stencils of these equipment? Will they ever come in handy? Pointless waste of plastic.

Smh. If you weren’t a science student, you’re forgiven

They’re used for quickly drawing pictorial representations for lab experiments in report books

What stopped you from finding the meaning of the symbols yourself?

fiercehillz:
Most of these symbols are laboratory equipment and glassware e.g. Pipettes, burette, retort stand, beakers, conical flask, round bottom flask, volumetric flask, test tube, graduated cylinder, filter funnel, etc.

Bless your soul.

They should have included calabash shape, mortar and pestle and grinding stone shapes there. You won't need to be told what those are for.

Math set not "masset"

You are right but OP is more correct, we were not told, the signs where just there and we kept the plastic like one important treasure even when we hardly knew what those signs were.

You didn't complete it. It's more than 9

Just like the way you don't cover everything in school

spelt or pronounced?

This is the best reason. I still found it a waste.

Bodydiialect57:
To keep the compass, dividers and the likes in place.

Wey evidence?

Serious ITK. Na those kind people we dey call "know-know", "Noah pikin"

Lithiumite:
Math set not "masset"

Na wa! Did you think they put "masset" in quotes for nothing? They know the correct spelling of maths set but spelt it as "masset" because that's how most Nigerian students pronounced it.

Anyone should be able to decipher that

SisterAnn:

Wrong.. they still buy them...

Bwilliam:

It doesn't cost 5k

😕😕😕


It's not even upto 1k...

I think if you're reasonable, nobody has to tell you

Prof, I salute ooooooo

Did you not study science subjects? From practicals in the laboratories you should have understood them then

Indeed... Veneer callipers, etc.
