How does this affect the understanding of both the communicator and the recipient/s?
I'm in that mood where ideas are popping up but I can't grasp them. Can I get some opinions/book recommendations?
Also, who would I read if I wanted to understand the affects (and effects) of language upon the creation and expression of ideas?
(also, I'd love it if we could add at least two tags, as this would fall under a number of categories)

If you want to see Sapir-Whorf in action, watch the Star Trek: Next Generation episode "Darmok". It sounds weird, but I had to watch it for an anthro class and write a paper about it and discuss the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. I also recommend reading up on the conduit metaphor.
