Someone pointed out to me that in the romance languages, when you want to say that you are right, you say you have reason -j’ai raison, ho ragione – but that in the Germanic languages you say that you are/have right – ich habe rechts, I’m right.
I was charmed by this insight into how language makes our world view different, so, of course, I decided to tell the internet.
Can you believe how much NaBloPoMo is still left?
