Finding words
Being fluent in three languages, I’ll notice when I don’t understand a word and when the word I’m using doesn’t seem to describe what I could say in a different language.
What I don’t notice is the existence of a word I don’t know and could use.
But there is more.
What I won’t notice is how I could be much more precise in my perception of things, would I know these words and be able to use them.
It requires practice.
One that can only be attained with others.
By deliberately trying to explain or share my experience with others. It allows me to develop an understanding of how much of my experience is shared experience. And, as we learn to explore our respective wording, I’ll learn how individual my experience still is when words still don’t catch it. Yet.
