Wonderful article. Really good illustrations of how deeply imbricated in language structures our value systems and our ability to conceptualize are—the Whorfian hypothesis. Makes me wonder about the impact of Americans' disdain for languages other than English. Elsewhere in the world, it's not uncommon to know several languages fairly well, even if one has little formal education; here, it's a terrific oddity for even highly-educated people. American college students scream bloody murder if you tell them they have to take a language; some Americans are openly hostile to others speaking anything other than English among themselves.

Beautiful article. So interesting to learn how different languages conceptualize the world.

The imagery of the body highlighting different parts and then the table showing nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs for those parts was so well done

Such an immersive article. I'd love to experience this beautiful and fascinating worldview first hand! Thanks for sharing!
