infinities
Numbers beyond counting
Infinities is the plural of infinity, referring to multiple instances or types of boundlessness.
In mathematics, different infinities have different sizes—the infinity of counting numbers is smaller than the infinity of real numbers, a counterintuitive concept that mathematicians have rigorously proven.
Outside technical contexts, infinities often appears in poetic or philosophical discussions: The universe contains infinities we cannot fathom.
