Everyone loves Mr. Bean (except his girlfriend who for Christmas got a picture of a couple getting engaged instead of an engagement ring she was hinting at 🤣)
All interesting thoughts... I think I agree, the invention of language is the most important invention. I believe there is a hypothesis out there that in fact the development of language was closely tied to the development of our brains.
Intuitively that makes sense to me. As the early humans developed their language, they thought more due to the feedback from fellow humans, and as they thought, their brains/neural pathways grew as a result - neuroplasticity! The limitation of a language equals the limitation of ideas, I think. (Have to chew on this more)
Missus loves Mr Bean too, and her mum was orang Sunda, but she's not much of a linguist, cunning or otherwise 😁
