I have been learning the characters or hanzi and notice that I look at things differently due to staring at these old and many varied forms. There are so many and quite creative. I then go to work and start looking at people and see their faces and bodies more like caricaturist. I recall reading about a man who had a stroke. He could speak Chinese iirc as it was stored elsewhere than an alphabetic language.
