I'll never forget learning in Uni that bilinguals and multilinguals are statistically better at problem solving. The amount of problems all of us have in our lives today, who knew that knowing more than one language could help you work through some of them more effectively. Fun facts!

Been learning american sign langauge. The deaf community is one of the worlds that is really understood by the hearing. Hearing parents that birth a deaf child sometimes refuse to learn sign language causing the child to have severe learning and isolation. Much love ❤️

No matter how many languages you've learned or use, knowing more words or less won't take away being able to enjoy the beauty of the forest or whatever place you are! you just won't be able to communicate the beauty you see into words and languages that everyone else will understand, but even if you could, the beauty might not be as beautiful to them as it is to you. but yes, I'm learning French right now and it is so amazing to realize how complex and important language is!

If I cannot describe it or name it does it mean I can't experience it? Maybe person A sees all the details as well, and registers them as the feeling they give off inside the person's mind, the only negative is they can't communicate this feeling to others…?

A new language isn't just a skill; it’s a new architecture for your thoughts. When you only speak one language, your 'inner front' is limited by the boundaries of that specific culture and its inherent biases. Learning a new one allows you to step outside your primary filter and see the world from a vantage point that wasn't accessible before. It’s the ultimate act of mental sovereignty—refusing to let your birth language be the only map of your reality.

I learn language because I got tired of only being able to read work that has been translated to Chinese.
Now I speak 3 languages (4 if you count mandarin and cantonese as seperate languages not dialects)

I also learned Thai, my fifth, by living in a village where nobody speaks any other than Thai.

It's because I've seen those who insisted on bringing Australia or California with them. Thailand, being such high-octane, can still be a very lonely place.

Why learn a new language, if we (generally speaking) cannot even describe forest as complex logical map? We have lots of work to do even in our native language.
@Surface_Depth

May 9, 2026 at 5:20 pm

The central argument here is that language shapes our capacity to perceive and engage with the world, that the limits of our language are the limits of our world, and that expanding our linguistic range expands our very experience of existence itself.

The philosopher being cited in support of this argument is referred to, across this seven-minute video, as Vickinstein, Vidkinstein, and Bickinstein. His first name is given as Ludik. His actual name is Ludwig Wittgenstein.

I want to be generous here. Perhaps this is an elaborate demonstration of the thesis. We are watching, in real time, the limits of a world in which the correct name of one of the twentieth century's most important philosophers has not yet been acquired. The experience of watching someone gesture repeatedly and confidently at a man they cannot quite name is itself a kind of phenomenology of linguistic incompleteness. Wittgenstein, were he alive, would perhaps find this instructive.

I also want to flag that Tagalog, the language cited for the word gigil — the urge to squeeze something cute — is here rendered as 'Telog,' and the word itself is rendered as 'giggle,' which is a different word in a different language describing a different thing. The Japanese word komorebi, meaning sunlight through leaves, appears here as 'komai.'

Rosetta Stone has been mentioned. I have no further comment.

Do you really only think in language? I don't. Not saying there is nothing to thought getting broader with learning new languages. But this feels much to reductive imho.

Speaking with someone in multiple languages, makes it so you can express with more precision. As it is possible to take advantage of the differences between the meanings of words that represent similar concepts. Having an array of representations for anything.
@kityees

May 9, 2026 at 5:20 pm

Does it have to be a new language? surely its possible to accomplish the same expansion of ones world through understanding your own language more deeply? I saw another comment about how its not nessesarily language that allows us to interpret our world, but knowledge, and I think that knowledge in a general sense can have the same world expanding affect. I will continue to "practice" my Portuguese when for whatever reason I have to engage with the language. Mabye ill learn a new language when another culture enchants me, but for now I will simply strive to learn, rather than learning a language :0

I'm ethnically Russian, but growing in the diaspora my parents didn't try super hard to teach it to me. I've spent the past 3ish years trying to learn it & I feel okay but omg is it difficult. I visited back home earlier this year for 2 months and it was so strange in that I could communicate something near natively & others I felt like we were speaking a whole different language. It really sucks, but is beautiful to learn a new language

Here's a message I want to give everyone, as inspired by a reply I wrote:

An app such as Duolingo is more or less just a supplement app — its flexibility and range of content are quite limited for what it is. It's a neat concept in terms of teaching a little vocabulary and reminding learners of core grammar, but other than that, it simply doesn't teach you as well as either class instruction or self study.

I highly recommend you look online for free lesson content — there are entire lessons dedicated to teaching you a language for free! You just need to dig for places to start, and from there, find other sources that teach grammar.

If that's too much hassle for you, you should also invest in a tutor/course. Or if you're enrolled at a school, then try taking their language course if they have your target language.

One more tip, make sure you actually practice the language! See if you can befriend a native speaker, or otherwise watch/read content in the language, and from there you'll get practice and experience.

I wish you luck in your language journey. It's never too late to start. If I may ask you guys, what language do you wanna learn?
