    what if you raise a child in a black and white home where they never get to see a color until about 5? would their mind not be able to depict color since that part of the mind wasn't developed? what if you have no name to a color would that child then be able to explain what the color looks like with out the name "red"

      Actually, in other languages colours can be "misnamed" from an English point of view. In some African languages, people have words for pink and orange but not red, so someone might say that tomatoes are orange. It's pretty cool :P

      I suppose this is like describing colour to a blind person

    • @morbidmary4019
      @morbidmary4019 7 лет назад +53

      lol no. im saying if you raised any person in a way that they would never see a shred of color and have no knowledge of it at all, then one day after a few years show them colors. would the brain just not develop the ability to see the color thus rendering them color blind? if they have no knowledge of the colors and no words for them as we would use like the sky is blue the apple is red, would that person then have the ability to actually describe the color without actually using a color name?

    • @morbidmary4019
      @morbidmary4019 7 лет назад +56

      and while we are on the topic...what happens if you where to raise a child with out limitations? what if they believed they could actually fly, or move things with their mind or do in-human things? what if you took away all the things we place as limitations...i mean we only use a small percent of the brain right? is it that way because of limitations of beliefs from science or biology that makes us not develop or use the other parts? its fun to think about isnt it? have you ever had that moment, someone is describing a problem and you make a suggestion and it completely bafuls them as if they didn't even consider it? A person who does not know there are limitations and rules is more free to think about a solution or to dream.

      @unsulliedkartoffel7414 7 лет назад +95

      They would be able to see the colour. People have gone from completely blind/deaf to full sensory restoration.
      And we use all of the brain. No amount of willpower is going to make someone fly or use telekinesis.
