I love that dialects of different languages are untranslatable unless you learn the language 

I love this fact almost unreasonably

This is beautiful. Great observation. The evolution of languages is one of my favorite things to study at like 3am.

Yeah I think the evolution of language itself beautiful tracks the cultures that it adopts and develops along side

If you ever get a chance, you should look into the origin of a standard deck of cards. As people of different cultures interacted with each other through trade, war, and conquest, they adopted traditions from one another, each adding their own little mutations over time. From culture to culture and generation to generation, these changes accumulated, with many of the details lost to history. The same can be said about the evolution of language (or musical genres as another example), as can be said about something as standard as a deck of playing cards.
