Multilingual multicolored

The Chronicle of Higher Education called with an assignment about the how multilingual people see the world versus people who speak a single language. Turns out the world is seems more varied and bigger for those who speak more than one language.

The structure of language is fascinating and one of the more surprising facts about language is spacial perception and interpretation of common occurrences  is altered based on your native language. My approach for this assignment was the idea that each language has a different color so naturally having more languages add a wider spectrum to how you view the world. Much thanks to AD Janeen Jones for the assignment.
