SEMANTIC-GRAIN

# WHY LANGUAGES DIFFER IN GRAIN
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

# Each language spent centuries developing vocabulary

# No single word exists for this in English.
# In Lingenic:

美しい(木漏れ日) ∧ 儚い(木漏れ日)
∵ 動く(光) ∧ 動く(葉) ∧ ¬繰り返される(瞬間)

# The scaffold holds it. English would need a sentence.
