Language of the Universe, language of humanity | Dmitry Petrov | TEDxPerm

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences.
Dmitry Petrov is a linguist who knows 30 different languages and does professional simultaneous interpretation in 8 of them. In this unique talk, Dmitry talks about his passion for understanding how language became what it is now, and his perception of language as a whole, global and inherent to the Universe and the Being. He believes that to learn a language, we must learn to emulate its native speakers in more than our words alone.
