...inventing words and bilinguality. Wednesday Language

Are two languages at a time too much for the mind? Caregivers and teachers should know that infants growing up bilingual have the learning capacities to make sense of the complexities of two languages just by listening. In a new study, an international team of researchers, including those from Princeton University, report that bilingual infants as young as 20 months of age efficiently and accurately process two languages....(at link)

Sigh. It's a period where I can't seem to stop inventing words in two languages. Awhile back the word 'coniglioni', a combination of 'rabbit' (coniglio) and the local equivalent of ass (coglioni. Which would mean testicle but...) came from my mouth while trying to describe certain functionaries and politicians in Rome. It doesn't exist, the word, but still the concept and word fit. The words come out spontaneously without thought or awareness of invention. By chance I then clicked on a link listing some delightful abandoned english words, one of which was cockadurm, which meant basically a little man who is vocally and gesturally big on himself. Coniglione. It has a different flavor in English. Culture plays its part. 

There've been other words, even today - in English - 'distachment'. I was trying to explain what happens when enough information detaching itself from one larger system of integrated information begins to identifiably form another system of self-referring information while yet mostly remaining within the same conditional parameters of the larger one, though it 'thinks' it's formed a different system. The word is a combination of 'distacco' and detachment - a flavor combine. As if something within the different words themselves were seeking each other out. 

Which is the question or questions I have: where does information come from? Why does it appear to be sticky? What does it seek to hold on to? And, of course, why are we letting a bunch of coniglioni around the world distach virtualized resources and themselves from the larger, real world itself, and us?
