They will never know what masset is. But if you were referring to the stencil above it's called mathematical set. Math set for short.

Mathset not Masset

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

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

If you were a science student, you will know it is correctly called 'MATHS SET'

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.

Tripod stand, bursen burner, petri dish

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

I don't know how well you guys were taught in school.
"Massey" bn in quote means that he intentionally wrote it that way, probably writing it the way they pronounced it back in the days.

The quote signs means you should not bother trying to correct it as the spelling was intentionally written that way.

You could do a quick research on the use of quotes in the English language online.

If you invested as little as 5% of your school time to understand simple English language, you would have known better.

We knew it as Masset in primary school until secondary school
