Knowledge is a Polyglot: The Future of Global Language - http://bigthink.com/big-thi...
"[H]ow much more beautiful and authentic and sophisticated and accurate" our world would become if we could appreciate the key terminologies of all cultures. (...) We need to continue to translate, of course, in order to communicate. But when it comes to the key terminologies of a culture, "we should not translate them but rather we should adopt them," Pattberg says. "The only way, as I see it, to create the global language is really to find a scientific way to adopt as many key terminologies as possible and to unite all the languages’ vocabularies into one."" - Amira
