Alien Languages May Not Be Entirely Alien to Us

24. Interesting.

Perhaps language will reflect the basic nature of each specific alien species. A very active, aggressive species will love verbs. A more thoughtful intellectual species will like nouns. An artistic, lyrical, emotive species will love adjectives. So we could see variations in the parts of speeches emphasized according to the personalities and world view of each species.

Yes I know about the hesitancy issues. I have traveled in China, and some of the young people can speak English but they don't want to do it for the reason you describe. Once I got college students speaking to me, I was amazed that they spoke English quite well and actually understood what I was saying.

Oh my, you made a great deal of progress in a very short period of time. The parents must love you!

You are quite versatile obviously on a number of levels!

You are welcome, yes very enjoyable discussion.

We lived in Tokyo for three years, then in Naha for two years. The two locations were so different. Naha was a tropical paradise and at that time totally undeveloped. Yes gorgeous. The only thing that was scary were the typhoons.
