Myth- collection of study that help people to live.
Western and Christian culture - 'not God did, but God spoke'
Creation of myth comes from spoken language.
In my country, public transportation is well developed. So, many people use it and we can usually can see little child sitting near a window and reading what they see- especially a sign board. What was that mean when they read? they can recognize there is some word they know.
Even though they do not know the meaning, but it is be able to become another world to them.
In Korea, when we see the rainbow, we say their is 7 colors in rainbow. But in a country which has distinction of less color, they may say there are fewer colors in rainbow. What I experienced here is something similar. In Korea, there is some pronounciation that English does not have. So, English speaking people usually cannot recognize the pronounciation. I think people understand as much as they can present in their language.
