%he sub0ect of toda$s lecture is Culture Shoc& 4rou' )ressure in Action.
Culture shoc&, as $ou &now, is the term used to describe the e('erience man$
'eo'le ha"e when the$ tra"el to another countr$, and it can be seen as a manifestation
of grou' 'ressure in action. /ts a good e(am'le of grou' 'ressure, because it shows
what ha''ens when an indi"idual suddenl$ e('eriences different cultural rules , the
rules of another cultural grou'.

*irst, then, wh$ do 'eo'le e('erience culture shoc&2 %hin& about this for a
minute. 6hen $ou grow u' in a 'articular set of surroundings, naturall$ $ou get used
to the rules and guidelines that go"ern the beha"ior of the 'eo'le around $ou. /n a
sense, $ou become totall$ de'endent on the rules of $our social grou'. You tend not
to 7uestion themA $ou 0ust acce't them without thin&ing. %hese rules are often not
clearl$ articulated, and therefore, $oure not aware of their im'act. /n other words,
$ou are not necessaril$ conscious of them. %he$ onl$ become im'ortant when, for
e(am'le, $ou go to another countr$ or a different en"ironment thats go"erned b$ a
different set of rules. /n fact this e('erience can be so shoc&ing that it has been
com'ared to ha"ing a buc&et of cold water thrown o"er $ou. Culture shoc& ha''ens
'recisel$ because $ou cannot use $our own culture as a ma' to guide $our own
beha"ior and $our own understanding of what surrounds $ou. Youre totall$ out of
control, 0ust as if $ou were dri"ing along a highwa$ in the dar&, without a road ma'.
And because of this, 'eo'le often beha"e irrationall$. /ts a highl$ stressful
e('erience, and there are different s$m'toms in different stages.

1 S38<%/8<S 5enneth !ale was as&ed how long it would ta&e him to learn a
new language. !e thought ten or fifteen minutes would be enough to 'ic& u'
essentials if he were listening to a nati"e s'ea&er. After that he could 'robabl$
con"erseA ob"iousl$ not fluentl$, but enough to ma&e himself understood. %o
those whose education, howe"er admirable in other res'ects, had 'ro"ided
onl$ rudimentar$ language s&ills, he seemed a mar"el.
3
2 As man$ of these languages had no written grammar or "ocabular$, and
indeed were s'o&en b$ few 'eo'le, 5enneth 'ic&ed them u' orall$. !is ti' for
an$one who 'ressed him for ad"ice on learning a language was to tal& to a
nati"e s'ea&er. Start with 'arts of the bod$, he said, then common ob0ects.
After learning the nouns, $ou can start to ma&e sentences and get attuned to
the sounds.
4
. %his is all the more confusing as language is much more com'le( than, sa$,
sim'le arithmetic, which often ta&es $ears to master. /t is often h$'othesised
that language is an innate human facult$, with its own s'ecialised s$stem in
our brain.
10
/ !e s'ent his childhood on a ranch in Ari=ona and started his education in a
one,roomed school in the desert. 8an$ $ears later, lecturing at 8/%, he still
felt most comfortable in cowbo$ boots. 3n his belt was a buc&le he had won
at a rodeo b$ riding bulls, and he had the slightl$ bowed legs of a horseman.
!is students were im'ressed that he could light a match with his thumbnail.
11
0 3ne /ndian language at its last gas' was s'o&en b$ the 6o'anaa&, the tribe
that greeted the )ilgrim *athers in +L@-. /t is now s'o&en again b$ se"eral
thousand 'eo'le around Ca'e Cod. A 6o'anaa& who studied under 5enneth is
're'aring a dictionar$ of her language. 5en was a "oice for the "oiceless,
said ;oam Choms&$. And he wor&ed tirelessl$ to learn endangered languages.
12
1 1es'ite these setbac&s, 5en did contribute to an understanding of the
a''arentl$ innate human ca'acit$ for s'eech. !e made a number of what he
called neat disco"eries about the structure of language, and had an instincti"e
sense of what all languages had in common. After his retirement from 8/%, he
said he would reall$ get down to wor&, an ambition he was unable to achie"e,
though his other achie"ements were considerable.

2 And these 'eo'le are often 'articularl$ u'set b$ a scholarl$ argument which
XI

surfaces from time to time about the desirabilit$ of &ee'ing ali"e languages
that ha"e little chance of sur"i"al. 3ccasionall$ the argument turns
nationalistic. *or e(am'le, is what 5enneth called the re"italisation of 6elsh
merel$ a nuisance in Britain where, ob"iousl$, <nglish is the wor&ing
language2 5enneth !ale had an indignant answer to that 7uestion. 6hen $ou
lose a language, he told a re'orter, $ou lose a culture, intellectual wealth, a

, And he had disco"ered his talent for language when 'la$ing with /ndian
friends who taught him !o'i and ;a"a0o. Learning languages became an
obsession. /n S'ain he 'ic&ed u' Bas7ue, in /reland he learnt 4aelic, and he
mastered 1utch within a wee&. !e sought to rescue languages that were d$ing
out.
\ And so he was. !e had a gift. But he was also an academic, a teacher of
linguistics at the 8assachusetts /nstitute of %echnolog$ (8/%). !e was aware
that man$ otherwise cle"er 'eo'le find learning a second language e(tremel$
hard. !e sought to find laws and structures that could be a''lied to all
languages and the search too& him into man$ linguistic b$wa$s, to the
languages of ;ati"e Americans and Australian aborigines and the Celtic
fringes of <uro'e.
E !owe"er, for 5enneth bilingual dictionaries were an anathema and banned in
his classes. !e held that meanings were too fluid to be ca'tured and readil$
translated word,for,word from one language to another. !e alwa$s told his
students that meaning was intuiti"e. $ou either gras'ed it, or $ou didnt.
N /n addition to his feat of learning so man$ languages, he is li&el$ to be
remembered b$ The Green Book of Language Revitalisation, which he hel'ed
to edit. /t was warml$ welcomed, es'eciall$ b$ those who ma$ be a touch
aggrie"ed b$ the s'read of <nglish, which is blamed for brutall$ swee'ing
other languages aside.
@ 5enneth could con"erse in about 9- languages, 'erha's a world record. !e
was the last 'erson on earth to s'ea& some languages. !undreds are
disa''earing, he said. %he$ became e(tinct, and / had no one to s'ea& them
with.
O Some students of linguistics belie"e that such an abilit$, if it e(ists, is
normall$ lost at the age of +@. But for 5enneth it was around this age that his
interest in language was 0ust starting.
D Still, there is much more to language than that. ;oam Choms&$, li&e 5enneth
a teacher of linguistics at 8/%, wrote. Language is reall$ weird. %here is
nothing else in the natural world that e"en a''roaches its com'le(it$.

9an. /t was about the 'ollution 'roblems in
the local ri"er. /t seems that things are
getting 'rett$ bad, and the 'ictures of dead

local 'eo'le themsel"es to describe it might
ha"e had a bit more of an im'act. %he$ had
some ama=ing statistics, going bac& for 7uite
a few $ears, and it 'laced the blame s7uarel$

loo&ed ridiculous. Lets ho'e it ma&es a
difference.
