Linguistic

[WinkAllKerb'']

so so so just sharing some stuff ... in the food for thought spirit series ...

what do we have, when it's warm or cold , well , the air discuss with our body.

what are langages ?

many things, but most commonly something we share with another entity(ies) to communicate.

speaking of speach hand writing and dictionnaries as we know them nowdays:

what do they are ;

well a tribes schemes legacy, without earth satelites photography, without knowledge of the world as a whole, without knowledge of the tribes next

how do thoose kind of primal tribes behave when they encounters, often they war, for territory, for reproduction etc.

at some point they started drawing map and lines between each others ...

langages at this time were like long time linked separate evolution & cryptanalisis thingies, a feodal impacted socio model scheme tool used to send people fight each others

what's the matter today, well some people still continue attempting to apply this separate linguistic evolution feodal scheme on many socio layers while some others people spend there time finding what's shared by all languages.

Discuss.

Well, there is no such thing as "the best language" - one that would suit everyone, and would be so comfortable to use billions of people across the world would want to switch to it. And if something like that would exist, social inertia would assure the existence of other languages for a long, long time. Which would mean that during that time the "One Language" would splinter into many dialects, and they would evolve further - thus closing the circle. Nah. Not going to happen anytime soon.

that's precisely why i use the words: "beings" & "whµman" and i can't stand anymore the word human (way too gendered, way too superior vs all, and totally missing some rescale layers, imho)
