Amen! 🙏
I didn’t know that regarding “do”. Thanks for the interesting take!
Language and linguistics is one of my favourite rabbit holes to go down. Like how our languages influences the perception of time, space and colour, for example, I read recently that English speakers view time horizontally, “looking forward to tomorrow”, “let’s put the past behind us”, whereas Mandarin speakers view time vertically, “up month” means “last month” and “down month” means “next month”. This vertical orientation might stem from traditional Chinese cosmology, where the heavens (associated with the past and ancestors) are above, and the earth (associated with the present and the future generations) is below. Fascinating!
Changes your perspective on things!
