countably many ==>
countable
<mathematics> A term describing a set which is isomorphic to a subet of
the natural numbers. A countable set has "countably many" elements. If the
isomorphism is stated explicitly then the set is called "a counted set" or "an
enumeration".
Examples of countable sets are any finite set, the natural numbers, integers,
and rational numbers. The real numbers and complex numbers are not [proof?].
