Our Brain’s Thesaurus

Think of an enormous reference book. From our earliest days of language development, every time we hear or learn a new word, we catalogue that word. In time, that word connects with other words through association of meaning, for example we learn a street is a road. But at first, it is merely a word. 

Our brain’s thesaurus is designed to amass language through lists of words. Without this, our communication would remain rudimentary.
