I just read an amazing article: Does Your Language Shape How You Think?

The whole thing is great, but I found the part about language of space absolutely fascinating. maju01, it reminds me of what we were talking about, re: orienting ourselves in a hemisphere we're not used to

Thank you! I might recommend that to my students later in the course :D

Fascinating! As I was reading I was wondering how someone with a geographical language would fare if transported to the opposite hemisphere.

Yes, that's an interesting thought. I wonder if this has ever been tested?
