yesterday
Friday, 20th of December. I learned something new.
Today I watched an interesting video made by an English Youtuber, who's a polyglot and a language teacher.
The main topic was neuroplasticity, and how learning a new language can improve your mental health, and delay the development of neurodegenerative conditions like dementia.
It seems that human brain has a double nature: it's an organ, but also a muscle. Therefore, as an organ, it automatically does things that we can't control, but as a muscle, it can be trained, and on the other hand, become atrophic.
One fascinating fact is that learning a language increases the gray matter and the prefrontal cortex: this area is thinned in people who have experienced traumas.
Studies have demonstrated that talking about a traumatic experience in a second language helps the individual to elaborate it in a more logical and emotionally detached way. That curious phenomena happens because we're naturally more emotional when we speak our mother tongue.
