it could be anything. any no. , any geometrical figure or any small thing. For eg. in grammar we have 5 vowels. so 5 is related to maths. in this way any small thing could be related to maths. it is very important. i need it for my school project. i'm just a small kid. i'm not able to find anything. PLZ HELP!

Cryptography
from wikipedia
"Cryptography is a discipline of mathematics concerned with information security and related issues, particularly encryption, authentication, and access control. Its purpose is to hide the meaning of a message rather than its existence"
The message could be a number or text on any language including english. There are specific technics for cipher and decipher coded english text.
I'm sure there are other ways in wich math relates to english language but this is one.
If you are interested in Cryptography I recommend you to read this book:
In Code: A Mathematical Journey
by Sarah Flannery, David Flannery
From Publishers Weekly
"At 16, Flannery made worldwide headlines as Ireland's 1999 Young Scientist of the Year for her discovery and presentation of the Cayley-Purser algorithm, an innovative encryption system roughly 22 times faster than the worldwide standard RSA algorithm. She declines the "genius" label, and a method for cracking her algorithm has since been discovered, but this only makes the book more interesting and unpredictable. It's more about the journey's adventure than the destination and less about Sarah's specialness than her spirit. The mix is part memoir, part puzzle book and part mathematical exploration, with scattered bits of mathematical lore. (The heaviest math is concentrated into two chapters and the appendices, leaving the remainder easy going for the fainthearted.) The puzzle-solving approach to math cultivated by her father (and coauthor) encourages exploration, an adventurous attitude, attention to concepts more than calculations and sheer enjoyment of taking on a challenge. It's also more egalitarian than proof-based approaches, giving newcomers a more equal footing with old pros, emphasizing the process of discovery and making connections, which is more fundamental than finished proofs. All this is wonderfully illustrated by Flannery's own story of her rapidly developing interest and proficiency in cryptography, as well as by the puzzles she uses to get readers thinking and introduce some basic concepts. Other threads, running from brief descriptions of her grandparents to her father's teaching methods and her relationship to family in the face of a media frenzy, give her story added depth, warmth and humor. 8 pages of b&w photos. (June)Forecast: Workman is hoping to, and should, attract budding young mathematicians with a first printing of 35,000, a $65,000 marketing budget and an eight-city author tour."
I hope this helps.

25 letters in english, or you can say how many vowels/constants there are. there are a number of things in English that have a certain number therefore can be related to math

If you found Yahoo, you can find out other things, small kid. Start surfing!

Cabala. You can make any text into numbers and juggle with it. Would not call it math though.

Counting sylables in sonnets, linericks, haiku, etc.
