Advantages of speaking more languages
http://www.edudemic.com/learn-another-language-bilingual/
Bilingual children adjust to environmental changes better.
Researchers found that because words in a second language, when learned later in life, do not carry the same emotional impact as the words of one's native tongue, individuals made more rational decisions when using their second language.

Languages of love

Love language A: Kind words.
You cooked an excellent meal. I will do the dishes after dinner. You are great at doing the work you do. You look great in that jacket.
http://www.amazon.de/The-Five-Love-Languages-ebook/dp/B0032CVAQQ/ chapter 4.
Love language B: Time spent with partner
Have dinner with your partner. Go for a walk with your partner. Listen to your partner without doing anything else. Ask your partner what he/she wants to do with you.
Then make a plan and do that.
http://www.amazon.de/The-Five-Love-Languages-ebook/dp/B0032CVAQQ/ chapter 5.
Love language C: Gifts.
Chocolate. Flowers. A smooth stone that looks like a heart. A postcard with a greeting.
http://www.amazon.de/The-Five-Love-Languages-ebook/dp/B0032CVAQQ/ chapter 6.
Love language D. Acts of service.
Cook a meal. Set the table. Buy groceries. Wash the dishes. Wash clothes. Vacuum floors. Clean the bathroom. Get fruit and vegetables in the garden. Make the beds.
http://www.amazon.de/The-Five-Love-Languages-ebook/dp/B0032CVAQQ/ chapter 7.
Love language E. Physical touch.
Give your partner a hug. Hold your partner’s hands. Rub your partner’s back. Put your hand on your partner’s shoulder.
http://www.amazon.de/The-Five-Love-Languages-ebook/dp/B0032CVAQQ/ chapter 8.
If your partner’s primary love language is physical touch, nothing is more powerful than holding her as she cries.

Part # 14
The language of music
In Nigeria, there are 250 languages. there are an estimated 400-500 idiolects. a Nigerian might drive 35-40 minutes and have
trouble understanding a conversation.
This patchwork of languages means that pan-African brands and advertising have to move beyond words to emotion, music, images, and other nonverbal messages. In meeting this challenge, remember that youth everywhere speak one tongue: the language of music.
Mahajan, Vijay: Africa Rising, p. 131.
