More random ideas!

Something else I should get down is that I'd like to tie together the idea of observer, perspective, person, and consciousness. If I do develop an internal language it will mix those ideas into a single word. Whenever referring to a reference point, such as in mathematics, that word will be used. It will refer to people, animals, perspective, or anything that "sees". There is value in distinction but there's value in anything where you look for it and the value I see with blurring the lines is that it entwines certain aspects of culture within the language itself. As language heavily adapts how we think, the interest here is not to give room for a tool but to enforce a principle.

On this language idea, some things will need to be eliminated over time. For instance, the forced communication of gender. Some words say too many things, some words say too little. But overall I think I have a problem with the limits of the English language to express the abstract thought I'm trying to express. While I've been told I'm proficient at expressing myself verbally, my problem is that it is not effortless whereas I feel it should be. Part of this process I think is to analyze the basics of my thinking pattern. See the limits of the abstract thought and assign words to the ideas I'm trying to express. And important, to note patterns in those ideas that can be represented simply. There are certain aspects of math that I wish we had more inherent language for. The expression of infinites and limits in terms of words. The use of "forever" as a non-literal is amusing, but how would you say "forever minus a day"? I think with grammar being designed around mathematic, ergonomic (linguistics), physical, and abstract ideas, it would allow for a better expansion in thought and explanation. I would like to design an internal language one day but there are things I want to take into account that I don't know yet. Hopefully I'll get there eventually, and maybe I'll blog about the whole process. ;)
