From the Basement — November 2022
What if the words don't exist yet?
There's an understandable focus on communication but are we even translating? Communication is easy. Translating is multilingual and more difficult. Men and Women don't speak the same language and it shows and it's okay, the words don't exist yet or maybe we haven't learned them. There's words for emotions in other languages that don't exist in English, 'Nostalgia' has many names. Does that mean we've never felt those emotions or do we just not have the words for it yet. Idk, all I know is there's a combination of letters that can unlock anything, a combination of sentences and expressions that can unlock anything...A spell and spelling are the same word. A wise person once said Humanity can only evolve as fast as our language does. We're still throwing rocks and making noise. Let's enjoy the silence when we can. That's as close to understanding as we usually get. JB
