I noticed that the word 'he' came in at #11 and 'she' not until #46. I wonder what impact this would have on our current perspective and if our new language might be able to function just as effectively without their use, drawing less attention to perceived gender differences. Or am I shooting in the dark here? (These are just an example of words we may choose not to translate).
Major, your opinion and all others welcome on this subject.
Quoting: curve It makes a big difference. If there was no distinction between "he" and "she", you can bet than the differences in treatment between the sexes would be very different. As a rule of thumb, if it has a word it has experiences related to it. Shared words would generally equate to shared experiences. If you want to experience something more often, invent multiple words for the nuances of the experience. If you want to experience something less often, then take it out of your vocabulary. Generally speaking.
