It takes a lot of practice so they would be able to pronounce a word in isolation correctly, and even more practice to link the words in such a way that the sentence has a proper stress patter.

]]> Comment on Communication and Cultural Thought Patterns by Caleb Grotz http://www.callearning.com/blog/2010/06/communication-and-cultural-thought-patterns/#comment-26715 Caleb Grotz Sat, 09 Feb 2013 03:22:26 +0000 http://callearning.wordpress.com/?p=271#comment-26715 I'm a deep thinker and very talented when it comes to communication because I can quickly adapt to how the other person is used to being told something. Meaning I know how to word my what I'm saying so that its taken the right way. Excluding all miscommunication. Earlier today I wanted to draw how my thought works so other people can visually understand. After it was complete I googled thought patterns and found the above image showing the cultures and how the different types of thinking made different patterns. The drawing of my thought pattern I made before stumbling on this website literally is the shape of all the thought patterns put together. I'm 17, and I just discovered on my own things that Kaplan, R. B. wrote about 58 years ago. But I have no idea what to do with this knowledge.
