Recently I asked which people thought most potent: Word or Action? All ultimately landed on action but a few folks went a bit deeper talking about the power of word and deed match/mismatch. I think word and act are a chicken/egg type trick, as each can trigger the other.

Word is also action, talk about authors or journalists.
And sometimes action is the best form of words, the fourth form of verb.

Yes! I do agree there's a symbiotic relationship. And, word matching deed is powerful. Sadly, I don't know a human, very much including myself, that achieves word/deed consistently. I do work on it but human is human :D

Language is like humans... The others always feel that you are more powerful but only the language knows how to exist within the 26 characters.

What about you, Vinish? What are your language(s) and how do they influence you most? I'm truly fascinated.

In read and write in English and study a bit about language and its history in a few fascinating references @aeonmag
What fascinates me most:
- subjectivity in interpretation when we need to draw shapes to explain it
- how people are so confident when they are NOT clear enough

To your first fascination, I'm unclear what you mean by needing to draw shapes. Example (you might have to draw a shape for me HA!) ;-)
To your second point, BAM! We need to apply a specificity algorithm to language and get as literal as possible. Could help us with conflict.

Semiotics! Signs, symbols. Human gestures, postures. Facial responses - all of if factors in to communication and learning. This is extremely helpful, widening my thinking. I so appreciate that! :D
