https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-B_ONJIEcE In this video, Steven Pinker, a cognitive scientist and Professor of Harvard University, talks about language as a window into the human mind. Language has a phenomenal power. Using a series of hisses and squeaks, you can be made to think about various topics. Currently, almost 6,000 languages are spoken on Earth. Linguistics is a complex discipline that studies how language works. It consists of various branches, including grammar, phonology, semantics, and pragmatics. If you are interested in linguistics and cognitive science, this video can be very useful for you.
