Event: Inquiring Minds

Topic: To what extent does language

influence our perception and cognition?

Host: Kevin Moriarty

To what extent does language influence our perception and cognition?

Have you ever learned a new word and then suddenly you hear that word everywhere?

What are the implications?

Does learning the name of a color change how you look at it?
e.g. magenta

What is language?

Do some languages make you smarter?

Is it hard to notice words that you don't know?

If you happen to use language, then come and share your experiences and insights for the benefit of the group.
