Concealed in the structure of language is a whole set of unconscious assumptions about the world and the life in it.======================================...contents :Three words for terrain, designating "absolutely flat,rolling, and slightly hilly."No word for ocean.Dozens of terms for grains, including eight for wheat alone.Several words for children, some of which translate as a wise small one, innocent leader,and little stargazer.Seven terms to describe the stages of life up to puberty; only one term to describe life from puberty to death.The word for sex translates as "to plant a wise one."Terms for woman are synonymous with "wife and mother."Terms for man are synonymous with "husband and father."Twenty words for book.No words for violent conflict or war. Nine words for artist.Terms for praise translate as "peacemaker and conciliator."While there are words for cow, pig, calf, and sheep, there are no terms for beef, pork, veal, leather, or mutton.Several words for precipitation, most translating as "rain." only one meaning "snow."Several words for leader but all are plural.Four words meaning theater.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------I 've got inferences so far below, what else do you have ?They live in a temperate zone with no mountains or coastlines.They are a very peaceful people who value their children highly and are most likely vegetarians.They have a strong appreciation of the arts.

Literate, and value both literacy and book learning.Value both fine arts and performing arts.Value intuition and intuitive processes. Spiritual practices are probably inner-oriented and personal rather than outer-oriented and social. Do not have a highly formalized religious hierarchy.May believe that wisdom is found in innocence, not knowledge. Loss of innocence correlates to a loss of wisdom. May believe that world and life perceived therough the senses is an illusion or a dream. That truth is seen through dream work or visions or intuition.No social value or prestige in leadership roles. Political structures are democratic or consensus based. Politics is not perceived as vocation.Do not have highly structured or permanent police, military or judicial hierarchies.Live in grassland or prairie, where grasses (grains) are the dominant plant form.Do not wear or use leather - so clothing, tools, bedding, and even housing will be made of plant matetrials, or woven hair or other fibers. Probably sophisticated weaving techniques and technologies - they have 20 words of book, so they have a lot of paper, too.
