A language of a people, derived by them, is a positive fingerprint of their mind.
It's not an inverted fingerprint of it, it's a positive one: if a people can grasp a concept they either adopt, adapt, or invent a word for it, even if it's just so they can tell their kids ''that tribe does that and they call it (whatever).''
When a people cannot grasp a concept no word for it appears in their language.
Let a linguist who was contracted to do some educational assessments in several African countries, for the national governments, explain to you what he discovered when he studied the language family of (the vast majority) of Africans: Bantu.
Bantu language family is quite old and completely native to Africa. By now there are many separate hundreds, even thousands of village dialects but more than 90% of all Africans have one or two local Bantu dialects as their native language(s).
''African Language and the African Mind."
It's 52 minutes. It's on Bitchute and it's on YidTube.
Recorded in potato-vision so every exciting nuance can be guessed at when staring at the 213 pixels comprising the video part;
the guy's just standing there at a lecturn so it's really just an audio talk.
