我们的母语、我们的第二语言，其实为我们提供了截然不同的视角提取和编译信息。语言能够改变我们的思维和感受，转换我们的感知和记忆，变更我们所做的决定，重新生成我们的想法和见解，从而影响我们的行动。
我们从未正视和发现语言的力量，它对我们的大脑、思维、认知、决定和行动有着深远的影响。
As Dr. Marian explains, while you may well think you speak only one language, in fact your mind accommodates multiple codes of communication. Some people speak Spanish, some Mandarin. Some speak poetry, some are fluent in math. The human brain is built to use multiple languages, and using more languages opens doors to creativity, brain health, and cognitive control.
Every new language we speak shapes how we extract and interpret information. It alters what we remember, how we perceive ourselves and the world around us, how we feel, the insights we have, the decisions we make, and the actions we take. Language is an invaluable tool for organizing, processing, and structuring information, and thereby unleashing radical advancement.
Learning a new language has broad lifetime consequences, and Dr. Marian reviews research showing that it.
