https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TelicityUnderrated concept.An example I see a lot of telicity is the word "learn".The word "learn" is ambiguous; it can be interpreted as either telic or atelic.I see that a lot of people default to interpreting "learn" as telic. Some languages apparently have built-in indicators of telicity. English doesn't. Yet somehow this connotation of "learn" as telic exists in many people's minds.Then there is the Sapir–Whorf hypothesis.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_relativityI posit the hypothesis that anglophones have their minds molded by the language into thinking of "learn" as a telic thing rather than an atelic thing, and that this contributes to their attitude toward learning, causing them to view learning as something that needs to have a tangible end product or else it's not learning, and that this attitude contributes to learned helplessness, incuriosity, utilitarianism/pragmatism, and scarcity mentality, causing them to learn less than they have potential for. This is possibly because given the lack of a marker for telicity, a word like "learn" is now open to being conditioned into people's minds with one particular meaning or connotation, and lacking a clear way to signal telicity or a clear alternative word with an atelic meaning or connotation, people have effectively been brainwashed by the words, 1984- or Brave New World-style.

>>543600173Linguistic relativity is a real thing.In gendered laguages calling yourself non-binary or transsexual is inherently funny because you have to use either masculine or feminine forms to do it.

>>543600173Reminds of this concept in maths and physics, "compactification", i.e. turning something infinite, open, or unbounded into something finite, closed, or bounded.>In string theory, compactification is a generalization of Kaluza–Klein theory.[1] It tries to reconcile the gap between the conception of our universe based on its four observable dimensions with the ten, eleven, or twenty-six dimensions which theoretical equations lead us to suppose the universe is made with.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compactification_(physics)

>>543601632Are we talking about un latinx or una latinx? Is the latinx blanco or blanca?
>>543602348The latinx is blancxI solved a captcha for this
>>543600173That took forever to understand, LEARN to make your point conciselyYou're wrong, English was used to invent an awful lot of stuff that didn't exist up until that point. Inventing stuff that doesn't exist requires abstract thinking ergo you are full of shit qed nigger
>>543600548You sound like a 105iq pseud yet you've deluded yourself into thinking you're an elite thinker. Pure fucking comedy every thread
>>543602657Ux blanx latinx, got it. Not funny at all. No need to delve deeper, like what to do if the language also has gendered article declensions or whatever, you'll just throw more xs.We're talking about gendered languages, not african click languages. Your solution is cringe and you should dilate.
>>543600173This is just semantic masturbating.
>>543600173Wow you just realised that Anglo-saxons, yourself included are retarded because you are limited by your own retarded language that perpetuates your retardation into oblivion. Who would have thought that there was a world outside of your little glass bubble... woah...
>>543602986Then once people use the X they drop it or make it silent. That’s how the J’s neuter a language.I solved another captcha for this.
>>543603066Pretty much. The entire point of language is to be a tool. Some people get so stuck on masturbating with this tool they forget it's just a means to an end.
