You don't need to imagine it. It has happened plenty of times in history, and usually ends in bloodshed. For example, when Icelandic vikings reached North America and encountered the indigenous people there.

The last question, “does humanity shape language or is it language that shapes humanity?”, was a question given to us before for a homework for oral communication and as i remember, the prof told us that it works both ways. I think he said that as humanity evolves, so is language, like adding more diff. contexts for a single word, then also language is one of the factors that pushes humanity to evolve but i cant remember well. It was years ago.

I have just read an article in a National Geographic magazine where they analized different animals that has some sort of skill to communicate abstract thoughts. There is the case of Alex, a parrot which was able say the shape and color of objects that were near him. Also he kind of expressed emotions like jealousy and anger. I think we have underrated animals' capacity of communication and just don't want to accept they have their own languages and feelings.

The systems you're talking about are just rules to promote clarity and avoid misunderstanding. Abstract concepts like time need special words for the past, present and future. I don't think it was a question so much of how we could develop such complex systems, but of why they were needed.

I remember there was a chimpanzee that was taught sign language. She was able to communicate with her handlers even to the point where she could put words together. It was revealed that this had to happen early in the chimp's development for it to work; on an interesting note the chimp later taught her babies sign language.

I find language quite a bit less mystic than most people make it. You just associate words/labels/sounds/signs with sensory inputs and start agreeing with people around you on the labels/sounds! After a while of this you have a primitive but functional langauge. And theres no denying that a language, no matter how primitive, provides an evolutionary advantage!
@SaborSalek
@SaborSalek 4 жыл бұрын
I think there is an interesting aspect on the part about „agreeing with others around you“. If several individuals had different assignments of gestures/ sounds to certain „words“ - how exactly did they agree on that? Was one version maybe advantageous to others and other individuals „naturally“ adopted it by intuition? Was there a Social hierarchy at Place already and the more subversive ones adopted the gestures of the more dominant ones? I think this is quite interesting.

@ @Kurt E. Clothier Check the first second of this video again, Nina George is on similar track with Watts. Words often shape you. Before you point out about any possible shortcomings of one of the greatest philosophers who ever lived and who managed to understand and join Eastern & Western mind/culture together, you should be more humble and state your concerns in more opened manner. Watts stated a correct fact: very often (almost always) we think in words and we realise this truth on rare occasions, we think with language inside our heads. Those words are not yours for sure, they were given to you by somebody else who is most definitely not you (parents, teachers, friends, other people, books...) and you accepted them as yours, but that will never make them yours like the deep feeling of hunger is yours. Let me try to explain to you little bit better what is real meaning which Watts and Nina stated here, your feeling of hunger is something distinct only for you and your feeling of hunger is not the same as mine, nor anybody else's, but we all call it "hungry". Words are the best tool to explain reality (internal and external) that we possess now, but they are not ours, nor they are the same as our thoughts, feelings, etc. That is why A.Watts stated that we SELDOM realise this, you think with your words, with language, you cannot think at all without speaking to yourself simultaneously (right now in English). Your thoughts are becoming language and it is not yours for sure. Why seldom then, why not always you might ask now? Well, there are few ways to "think" and "feel" without language, but it requires meditation and practice for one example, or some other things which we know can alter your conciousness, and those things are far away from majority of people who simply have no choice but to always think and feel by translating their thoughts and feelings into language inside their heads. There are moments in life where pure unconscious mind or pure reflex takes over, but that happens seldom, so we are all almost always speaking to ourselves in language which is not ours and which removes us one step away from reality. It enables us expression, society and many different things, sure, but it also shapes us back because of that. So, try to think about your hunger, try to feel it without the word HUNGER in your head, you will see it is impossible (most probably you are not a Buddhist monk with 10+ years of experience). That makes your thought and your feeling not yours, since all you do is translate your inner workings with language. To really feel and think your own inner workings you must use your own initial tools, and language is most definitely not yours no matter how much intuition says to you that it is, you simply took somebody elses concepts from very early childhood and now it feels like when you state inside 'I am hungry' that is my own hunger for sure...well, sorry, but it is most definitely not. Feeling is, but you cannot express it without language. Once again, it is almost impossible to think and feel without words, that is for sure.

I think people have misconstrued the meaning of their definition. The definition of language is that you can theoretically combine the "words" or bases of the language to create an infinite amount of ideas, and information.

It seems to me that the definition of language they use has been deliberately designed in an attempt to exclude any other animals, leaving only humans as the 'special' ones. If the definition is just "a method of passing an understandable message from one individual to another" then a Bonobo's "snake" "bird" etc IS a language, it's just a very simple one. As for speech. All speech is is a series of noises that we have communally agreed have a specific meaning. Sure we have thousands of them, but they are all just noises that we assign meaning too. If we all agreed "Ugg" means "beautiful" then that means 'ugg' is a word and part of language. So when a Bonobo says "skree" and that sound has a specific meaning that all other Bonobos understand then "skree" IS a word.
