"...of the 3000+ dialects spoken in the world today, less than a fifth of them have written forms."
#please feel free to ignore this#I'm reading The Analects#Sometimes I sort of like get lost trying to imagine what certain things or fields of study would look like#under a different predominant world culture#Like if one of these dialects without a written form was the predominant world language? Um first of all no emails#But in all seriousness it is a fascinating thought experiment#I know of at least a few languages that rely heavily or exclusively on spoken communication#but I didn't realize there were so many
