thoughts about future What would happen when every human being on our planet would speak the same language? Is it unthinkable? Maybe but maybe not. I am chatting with people around the world. Some of them don't speak any English. So how do I understand them? Wechat do the job for me. It can translate every of my messages into my desired language. I assume that wechat uses the Google translation API. However, it works fine. Of course it's not 100% reliable and sometimes you will read some funny stuff and think who is joking me now, Fugui from China or Google? Comming back to my first question. So if someday someone invent a high tech translation tool (probably Google) that translates my voice instantly and perfectly to another language I would assume the world should become a more peaceful place. No language barriers anymore but more love and more understanding? The more I think about the more I get a strange feeling about. People had not to learn languages anymore. More capacity to learn something else? Not long ago I read an article that said more and more young Chinese people don't learn or forget how to write Chinese characters. Nowadays it is not necessary anymore to write that much. You just need keyboard and the computer make the rest. I am software engineer and i think my future could look like this. My Roboter cleans the room and prepares the dinner for me while I am sitting in my virtual reality creating more virtual realities. When I want to visit my friend Fugui I have just to switch the program and meet him in a virtual coffee shop in France (Reminds me on the Matrix movie). I am fat and ugly because I am not going out anymore. But virtual I am a mix of Brad Pit and Arnold Schwarzenegger (the virtual girls love that). Doesn't it sound nice? Well I am going to go out now and have a coffee with Fugui in a real cafe near by. Maybe I won't understand everything what he says but we laugh much and it's always funny. See you soon in my virtual reality ;)

thoughts about the future

What would happen when if every human being on our planet would could speak the same language?[1]

Is it unthinkable? Maybe, but maybe not.

I am chatting with people around the world. Some of them don't speak any English. So how do I understand them? Wechat do does the job for me. It can translate every all of my messages [2] into my desired language. I assume that wechat uses the Google translation API. However, it works fine. Of course it's not 100% reliable and sometimes you will read some funny stuff and think who is joking kidding [3] me now, my friend Fugui [4] from China, or Google?

Comming Coming back to my first question.: Sso if someday someone invent invents [5] a high tech translation tool (probably Google) that translates my voice instantly and perfectly to another language I would assume the world should become a more peaceful place. No language barriers anymore but more love and more understanding? The more I think about it the more I get a strange feeling about.

People had would not have to learn languages anymore. More capacity to learn something else?

Not long ago I read an article that said more and more young Chinese people don't learn or forget how to write Chinese characters. Nowadays it is not necessary anymore to write that much. You just need a keyboard and the computer make does the rest.

I am software engineer and i I think my future could look like this.

My Roboter cleans the room and prepares the dinner for me while I am sitting in my virtual reality creating more virtual realities. When I want to visit my friend Fugui [see .4] I have just have [6] to switch the program and meet him in a virtual coffee shop in France (Rreminds me on of the Matrix movie). I am fat and ugly because I am not going out anymore[7]. But in the virtual world I am a mix of Brad Pit Pitt and Arnold Schwarzenegger (the virtual girls love that).

Doesn't it sound nice? Well I am going to go out now and have a coffee with Fugui in a real cafe near by. Maybe I won't understand everything what he says [8] but we laugh much a lot and it's always funny.

See you soon in my virtual reality ;)
