Is absolute belief in one’s one ability to estimate how every human language could possibly work terribly scientific?
Me, I like scoping claims to what is measured.
- thaumasiotes 3y agoYou say that like no one's ever bothered to measure what kinds of sounds can be used in human languages. The opposite is the case; this is not a lightly studied field.
- AlecSchueler 3y agoIt's scientific to say other languages are "predicted" to show similar results, but unscientific to say we know they do.
