What makes a Language whole
The various spoken forms heard around Bremen, Germany and Interlaken, Switzerland are considered regional dialects of German. But when someone from Bremen visits the Swiss Alps, the stories they hear among the locals may not make sense to them. Mandarin and Cantonese are also often referred to as dialects of Chinese outside of China. But they are also different from Spanish and Italian. On the other hand, speakers of Danish, Norwegian and Swedish, three recognized languages, can usually communicate in their mother tongue with little difficulty. And Turkish series broadcast without dubbing or subtitles are among the most popular programs in Azeri-speaking Azerbaijan. So when is a spoken form considered a dialect versus a language? It seems reasonable to classify the two speech styles as distinct languages or as dialects of the same language, determined by the degree of mutual intelligibility.

Signalling ET
It’s up there on the top shelf; the moratorium on Thought. A directive, issued and revised by the current reigning bureaucrats in office, to silence, you, the reader of this file. It’s marked strictly personal and confidential. Within this file, the plans and details of the probe that had been cast into the vast cosmic space, and the message broadcasted in 55 languages whilst engraved on a pair of Golden Records, are retained. The message was shot like ‘an arrow through the dark’… with the hope, that, it could, perhaps be translated by some distant intelligent life form, somewhere out there. And, for years the voyager I probe sailed on and on through space, in one constant, and tireless direction, never to attract outside interest… never to return home…
