The truth as I see it now is not that the culture is bound by the language, or the language generates the boundaries of the culture--but that both sets of limits are imposed by the people who choose to live within them.
Now postulate a language that does have the equipment because it was invented by women (raised in virtual isolation from all males) for the express and specific purpose of describing and relating all of life's processes to the processes of pregnancy.
The adult Gen has nothing that the child doesn't have (though he may use it better as an adult.) What you are calling "Gen perceptions" is the simple psi-order awareness that all humans share, plus human intuition.

 Gen ed requirements face challenge
Tensions are building between the modern language faculty and members of the general education committee as the groups debate where modern language courses will fit in the new general education program.
Ruth Wood, chair of the gen ed committee, the Faculty Senate subcommittee working on revamping the current program, said that many departments are not specifically named in the new program as a consequence of the overhaul.
One of the criteria for HFA courses is for students to “interpret and evaluate artistic representations,” according to the gen ed committee’s course outlines.

Nimrod was a king, because he had a kingdom (Gen 10:10), and the Antichrist is called a king (Dan 11:36).
From out of that land other cities were built, which shows the ambition for a "world-empire" which surely would have happened if God would not have confused the languages.
Gen 11:6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now NOTHING WILL BE RESTRAINED from them, which they have imagined to do.

 Gen Re: Life / Health Professional Risk Assessment - A Traditional Service
Gen Re offers consulting in all areas of risk assessment, for medical, non-medical and financial risks.
Gen Re was one of the first companies to develop software systems for processing the majority of life and health insurance applications, allowing insurers to finalize business without the involvement of an underwriter.
Since Gen Re conducts business with insurers around the world, the development of a truly global expert system that could be adapted to the needs of each country and work well in different languages became desirable.

 gender definition - Dictionary - MSN Encarta
grammar category of noun: any one of the categories into which nouns and pronouns are divided in languages that have gender, e.g.
Traditionally, gender has referred to grammatical classifications in languages, and sex has referred to the biological classifications to which gender is analogous.
For some time, however, anthropologists have used gender to distinguish cultural categories from biological ones: Gender roles are indistinct among the young of this society; the two sexes play together frequently.

 Nth Generation Language
The big problem is, nobody precisely agrees as to what constitutes an NthGenerationLanguage for a particular value of n--it tends to reflect the biases of the author or the speaker.
AFAIK, it was the first to be implemented as a working programming language; however, there were a number of program-planning notations, both procedural and functional, which were used for designing programs which would then be implemented in MachineLanguage or AssemblyLanguage.
The term "generation" was overused and misused by the time of marketing hype of "fourth generation", and the famous Japanese Fifth Generation project (based in part on Prolog, which generation was that?) was pretty much the final nail in the coffin.

Gen Abizaid told the committee the top priority was to secure the Iraqi capital, where the struggle was at a "decisive" stage.
But Gen Abizaid also said he remained optimistic that the Iraqi government and iraqi forces, with US support, could prevent the slide into civil war.
Gen Abizaid's warning was backed up by Gen Peter Pace, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who said ultimately descending into or avoiding civil war depended on the Iraqis.

 NYU Department of Linguistics: NELS32 Aygen Abstract
Based on data from Turkic languages (Turkish, Kazakh, Tuvan), I will argue against the widely accepted claim (Hwang 1997, Kornfilt 1985) that the case on the subject is licensed either by the [+T] feature on T (in English type languages) or by the phi features on Tense or Agreement (in Turkish type languages).
Turkish has been argued to belong to the group of languages where the phi features on Tense or Agreement license the case on the subject: in this approach verbal agreement licenses nominative and nominal agreement licenses genitive case (Kornfilt 1985, George and Kornfilt 1981, Hwang 1997).
I will also argue that Portuguese, Korean and Berber, which are grouped with Turkish and claimed to be languages where phi features license nominative case, should in fact be analyzed in terms of the external syntax of clauses, that is whether they are selected or not.

 DITC15-8
This judgment was necessary because the imaginations of mankind are continually sinful and wicked (Gen. 8:21, 11:6) and they had imagined themselves creating a civilization apart from the commands of God (Gen. 11:4).
God did confound the languages of men, which all came from one language, and by that act they could no longer communicate with one another and were forced to spread out and populate the earth as God had told them to after the flood.
Yes, in a sense God did "give" them separate languages, but to be accurate and not leave the wrong impression, since we do not understand the way in which God did this, we must use biblical terms.
