It’s news everywhere now! Great advances have been made in the area of bionics (science that combines biology with technology), and for the very first time, a multilingual microchip has been “plugged” into the human brain in the laboratories of Lingchip, a multinational enterprise.
This step was possible thanks to surgical implantation, drilling the skull with nanotechnology, in collaboration with a prestigious university. According to our sources, this chip has storage capacity, under a surface of just 1mm2. It includes the vocabulary and short and essential phrases equivalent to three languages. Its functioning is very simple, and it can save us many hours of study, which could motivate many to study a language.
When we want to express a word or phrase in another language, the chip called “flea” recognizes the electrical currents of the brain when searching for a word and reminds us how it is said, including the correct pronunciation … This is how a new that would revolutionize the world could be read in the perhaps not so distant future.
In fact, many researchers have been looking for a solution to this problem for decades. In less than 50 years, it will be possible to select the language that you want to talk or understand in an app installed in your smartphone. The US Defense Department tried, in the 90’s, to create something similar to make it easier to the troops to understand the Arabic speakers.
The results were not so acceptable, but the idea became the seed that now it´s being developed. The chip will be implanted in some volunteers to check if it works properly. In that case, you will be able to talk any language and to be understood wherever you go. This choice open a new era to travelleres, business men and women and humanity. Babel tower will be reminded just as a metaphor and any human being will be able to express him or herself without facing the language barrier.
At 3Lingua we have advanced this future to capture it in this article. Hopefully you were not scared, or maybe you were happy to read it and we have smashed your dreams. In any case, the thought of “opening our coconut” can make you sick. Our goal has been to capture your attention and encourage you to use languages at a high level of quality, both yours and foreign ones. Furthermore, it is essential, in our experience, to work with native professionals, whether in translation, interpretation or study. We must keep in mind that, after all, language is like a business card, since it reflects our educational level, corporate image and other aspects of our lives …
Move on, start now to learn a new language and you might not need to feel the drill in your skull. We are waiting for you. You will be welcome to become a happy student that will enjoy every lesson. Or do you prefer to wait 50 years and use a smartphone to be understood?
