Finneus
This has been a linguistic debate, although I agree in part that language can determine how one thinks , to use an broad example, Eskimos may regard snow differently as someone from tropics see first time , but this is al ultimately shaped by the environment Environment make language which shapes how one perceives the environment shapes how one thinks , akin to Jared Diamond recent books / ideas

Henry Guo Teach Chinese in Jokes and Tell Jokes
Algorithms recommend what we like to watch, and if we're not actively looking for different points of views, most likely we'll be exposed to views we agree with most of the time brI’ve been trying to watch various channels to try to make comprehensive understanding of the world brI’ve made many videos teaching Chinese language vividly and in a humorous way I hope somebody can recommend my videos to those who want to learn Chinese For beginners, Chinese characters may look complicated But once you learn about 100 basic radicals, most characters become easy brI hope more people can learn Chinese to get comprehensive firsthand information about China and most likely seek more job opportunities brKnow ourselves as well as our partners, competitors, adversaries…

When you realise that the language we learned affects the way how we think, the approach we take is we are trying everything to find the common good between each other for the best of solution

Its fascinating to know about the language interpretations differences between the Spanish and German languages in terms of assigning feminine and masculine descriptions about objects like bridges and how that shapes their understanding of situations and objects

Lol native English speakers acting like learning foreign languages suddenly makes you think like natives of that culture It may aid you in understanding how those individuals think, but you don’t suddenly become part of said culture Only bilinguals tend to develop two cultures at once You may become inundated with it, but your culture is what you grew up learning I hate to break it to you, but other than being born into it, the only other way is you move and immerse yourself in it for years to the point you forget your old language/identitybrbrOne may change how one thinks, but you don’t undo twenty years of cultural perspective in studying a language for four-five+ years Especially when you’re doing it from behind a screen, sorry 😂brbrНе беспокойтесь, глупые американцы brНикто не особенным

I totally agree that languages shape our mindset When I speak my Cantonese I feel like I'm more toxic and negative and when I speak English I m more polite and positive Like in Cantonese, we have many phrases or slang to blame someone and deny something while in English generally speaking there's less thing like that And even my facial expressions are different when speaking different languages Amazing

Languages are not valued because they tend to be taken for granted Yet every language is a value in itself as a collective-cognitive as well as a cultural achievement

For the love of God, to anyone who finds this nonsense credible I would highly recommend: Plato's Cratylus dialogue or the linguist John McWhorter's highly competent invalidation of this unfortunately quite pervasive Sapir-Whorf sophistry

Demosophist
Why is it, do you suppose, that every culture that has a word for the planetary gods Saturn and Venus also identify the former as male and the latter as female? Well, almost every culture There is also an identification of Lucifer with Venus, for some reason But why is that? Why is Venus the goddess of love or the mother goddess in nearly every language, but is also seen as an evil and violent entity in some (for instance, Kali, in Hindu culture) This appears to transcend language What is it that transcends language, and why the transcendence? BTW, Mars is virtually always male but in Mesoamerica there doesn't seem to be any connection between the planet/star and a god in the pantheon That's a mystery

Interesting! This talk mentioned several languages, but I would be happy if people mentions more Asian contexts For example, some Asian language have many ways of telling subjects and ways of showing respects I hope the TED talk will pitch more diverse views, and encourage to break the wall between culture!
Comment from : Sacchiko


thanderneek
to me, learning a new language is just like going to an exchange office to turn your currency into another one the target language is the currency at the exchange office and your daily language is the money in your pocket:)

Pertinent to the premise of the syfi movie, "Arrival" There, an alien race arrives on Earth and teaches us its novel language which causes us to perceive into the future Once humans achieve the ability to see future outcomes before they happen, a new age of enlightenment begins

يوسف يوسف
يحتاج المفكرون بالكلمات او اللغة الى فن التفكير اللغوي واما المفكرون بالصور العلمية فهم بحاجة الى نزع الكلمة او الالفاظ عن تلك الصور قبل التفكير بها والتفكير بالصور الحسية الجزئية، يختلف عن التفكير بالمفاهيم العقلية الكلية التي لم تكتسب عن طريق الحواس

Rodrigo Diaz
9:37 that's inaccurate or not true in that case you could say "se le rompió el jarrón" (impossible to translate, but denotes that you are responsible, something like "the vase broke because of me", and also denotes it was an accident) In spanish you would also say as well "me quebré el brazó" (literally "i broke my arm") and never "se me quebró el brazo" brNot only it is not true you cant express who's responsible in spanish: you can actully express both the responsible and the fact it was an accident, making spanish better and not worse like she stated

Marlon Espinal Delrio
The language that one speaks shapes the manner in how one thinks The moral righteous truth in a spoken righteous languge is leterally the moral righteous compass to Godly virtues that points ones direction to God's providence and prudence: a good life of health, happiness and ones prosperity
Comment from : Marlon Espinal Delrio


Marlon Espinal Delrio
Language does craft reality because their is a Godly language acceptable to the Supreme Celestial Ineffable Infalible Divine Life essence of life existence within all living existence of life itself, thus, allowing humans in ourselves to become better living human beings On the other side of the spectrum when language become corruptable in social groupings, people and their living enviroments continued to decay with decadence and corruption in their societies Distancing those of corrupt language from source of God the Supreme Innefablible Infalible life Essence of good virtues and all goodnes People often times say during their difficult times that God has abandoned the planet Earth and left them, but, infact it is the corrupt language that prepetuates decadence and corruption in men, women and their children (kids) , by purposely as a whole they the people are ones who are distancing themselves with their language from the righteous order of God's Ineffable Infalible life existence of life within all righteous existence in life In history's pages of chronology Godly kingdoms strived to speak the righteous pronoucable language acceptable to God, but as evil warmongering corrupt kingdoms faught and corrupted people they began corrupting the languages of the peoples Language is what human beings refer to as the moral compass of good virtues

Thanks for the video! I think English is indeed very logical language And about colours, designers use more words than just light blue or dark blueturquoise, sky blue, sapphire blue, navy blue etc And it is really interesting to use South, North, West, East instead of Right and Left ;)
