ESL004 Discussion: Would You Rather?

I chose to be fluent in all languages. As the research suggests that language shapes the way we think. Basically, every language is a philosophy in itself and gives a unique world view. Therefore, knowing hundreds or thousands of languages would mean knowing hundreds or thousands of ways of seeing things (perspectives). To be able to communicate with animals sounds interesting, explorative and even creative, I feel given the number of animals its practically impossible to be able to communicate with all. However, I still thin its a creative idea and with that ability one can understand the unexplored realities or dimensions of animals, also because its really fun to be able to communicate with them. I also feel the answer depends on my current creative instinct and reasoning, five minutes later, i might chose the other option different than this one.
