Ok, noting there have been various calls for order,
I think its only fair to get it back onto topic,

Assuming there is & are subtle differences percieved
in the content of literature and hence pictography
depending upon your reading direction (eye tracking)
and these could be dependant upon the cultural biases,
is there a common or universal human pattern or
direction for reporting or registering sceneries?

eg. instead of reading X & Y what about Z? forwards
or backwards? I would have said that emphasis would
be placed on objects closer in the visual field, so
is it possible to say, lay the bare foundational
structure of a language purely on visual real-time
perception? perhaps the colour of objects is more
significant in some way, sound, motion,etc. I didnt
mention perpective engineering here due to there
being so many ways to represent depths of field.

The language element comes in thru communication.
How could more complex grammars and syntax have
formed, if there are common biological bonds of
sight, sounds, taste, etc perception between us?

Thanks
