    I might have mentioned this article before, but nevertheless it is still very interesting.


     
    […] Gross, Jessica. (Feb. 19, 2013) Five Examples of how the Languages We Speak Affect the Way    We Think. Ted. http://blog.ted.com/2013/02/19/5-examples-of-how-the-languages-we-speak-can-affect-the-way-we-think/ 


     
    I think this gentleman has it wrong. Language doesn’t dictate thought. Thought dictates language. Thought is influenced by culture. Steven Pinker’s “The language Instinct” discusses the question that Mr. Chen is looking at and states conclusively that your thoughts are not limited or confined by your language. This is why Orwell’s nightmare of thought being eliminated by eliminating words would never happen (or at least only last about one generation)
