馬克．佩葛：語言如何改變人類

Language is not just a tool for communication; it is humanity’s most radical invention, enabling direct transfer of ideas and unlocking large-scale cooperation. Unlike other animals, humans learned to share and accumulate knowledge, which fueled innovations from hand axes to space shuttles. In Papua New Guinea, a new language can be found every mile, showing how language can both unite and divide. As the world grows more connected, the challenge of thousands of different languages hinders global cooperation and exchange.
