No, it's not.
Hint: It consists of 8 "L"s and 5 "."s, in total of 13 characters. No?

More math like, defining it as an infinite sequence:
(c_n)_(n e IN) with c_n = "L" for all n e IN. :-P
We'd usually write (a term referring to) this sequence the following way:
("L", "L", "L", ...) .
:-P
Of course, most mathematicains would just write
(L, L, L, ...)
when it's clear that "L" is not some sort of variable or arbitrary constant but should refer to the letter "L". :-P
Hint: WM does not even know how to write terms for (i.e. referring to) infinite sequences properly.
