Raised on the Southern Oregon Coast, now retired on the Southern Oregon Coast. I was a hard of hearing child who grew up to be a deafened adult. I share and write about deafness, hearing loss and other things I find interesting. I am a 50 something year old woman who could be anyone's mother, grandmother or friend. I've traveled the U.S., and I've lived in Europe. I'm currently residing near the beach with Fabulous Husband and 11 year old son. ~ Joyce Edmiston

"The Universal Language is in Our Minds"
This is a provoking thought by linguistics lecturer Patrick Boudreault. It is captioned and signed.
Interesting idea. At one time I studied Esperanto and was able to use it a little with the few who knew it. But a far as spoken languages, English has become the universal language. However, that may change someday.

Why have I not read about this before. That's quite interesting.
