The color of language as the key to ancient languages? | Eva Spekhorst | TEDxPrague Youth

Altaic languages are pink, Uralic ones have white and blue tones. Eva believes accents make people unique because they manipulate language. The Etruscan language appears like a "rainbow vomit" to her. Eva aims to become an Etruscologist or Oriental archaeologist to explore cultural exchange between Mesopotamia and Etruria and the Etruscan language's origin. She believes a language's fundamental color remains unchanged despite manipulation. To her, language is an amalgamation of cultural factors, and she thinks people should ask "why" before learning a language. For Eva, language is home, suggesting ancient people's home is still present in their language. Eva speaks 50 languages fluently and has synesthesia, a condition where her auditory and visual senses merge, allowing her to see languages as colors. She describes synesthesia as multitasking, like studying while a video plays. She identifies patterns in language synesthesia, noting colors, schemes, phonemes, and language families.
