Linguistic, Arrival and Reality: Warrior Mind Podcast #309
Over four years and going strong! With over 400,000 downloads from over 9 countries and 5 continents’…. this is
the Warrior Mind Podcast.
In this episode of the Warrior Mind Podcast I’m going to go to review the movie “Arrival” and tie it into linguistic relativity and personal reality.
Linguistic Key Points
- Arrival: The film’s premise hinges on the idea, shared by many linguists and philosophers of language, that we do not all experience the same reality. The pieces of it are the same — we live on the same planet, breathe the same air — but our perceptions of those pieces shift and change based on the words and grammar we use to describe them to ourselves and each other.
- Linguistic relativity – the idea that viewpoints vary from language to language.
- linguistic determinism – the idea that language determines thought.
- How people think doesn’t just vary depending on their language, but is actually grounded in, determined by, the specific language of their community.
- Alfred Korzybski: “the map is not the territory.”
