0:00:10.143,0:00:14.244 So some of the smallest[br]most insignificant work 0:00:14.244,0:00:17.995 is everyday cos reflect[br]a lot about who we are. 0:00:17.995,0:00:20.137 And I say this not[br]as a linguist, 0:00:20.137,0:00:23.506 or a computer scientist[br]but as a social psychologist. 0:00:23.506,0:00:25.743 And today I'd like[br]to tell you a story 0:00:25.743,0:00:28.345 that summarizes[br]a lot of the research 0:00:28.345,0:00:31.060 that my colleagues,[br]my students and I have done, 0:00:31.060,0:00:34.623 that have helped me[br]to come to this realization. 0:00:34.623,0:00:38.137 Now several years ago I was studying[br]the nature of traumatic experience 0:00:38.137,0:00:40.607 and how it is related[br]to physical health 0:00:40.607,0:00:44.927 and kept finding[br]that just completely perplexed me. 0:00:44.927,0:00:48.965 Basically when people have[br]a major traumatic experience in their life, 0:00:48.965,0:00:52.355 they are much more likely[br]to get sick after that event, 0:00:52.355,0:00:54.462 if they keep the events secret, 0:00:54.468,0:01:02.145 than if they actually[br]talk to other people. 0:01:02.145,0:01:07.127 So, this really bugged me,[br]so keeping a secret it seems 0:01:07.127,0:01:09.319 is somehow toxic. 0:01:16.000,0:01:18.000 ####this let me too 0:01:18.000,0:01:21.000 brunson experiment we brought people in the laboratory 0:01:21.000,0:01:23.000 and we asked them to write about 0:01:23.000,0:01:26.000 the most dramatic experiences they've had 0:01:26.000,0:01:28.000 especially if they kept a secret 0:01:28.000,0:01:30.000 and these are big trauma cedras things like right 0:01:30.000,0:01:31.000 they were like uh... 0:01:31.000,0:01:34.000 major public humiliations or failure 0:01:34.000,0:01:38.000 and the results that we got from this this study were stunning 0:01:38.000,0:01:39.000 we discovered that 0:01:39.000,0:01:40.000 harried 0:01:40.000,0:01:43.000 people write as little as fifteen minutes a day for three or four 0:01:43.000,0:01:45.000 consecutive days brought about 0:01:45.000,0:01:48.000 meaningful change in people's physical health 0:01:48.000,0:01:51.000 and even their immune function 0:01:51.000,0:01:54.000 translating up saying experiences into words 0:01:54.000,0:01:56.000 makes a difference 0:01:56.000,0:01:58.000 book why 0:01:58.000,0:02:01.000 since then there been hundreds of studies done by lab so all over the 0:02:01.000,0:02:04.000 world trying to answer this and they haven't come up with the single life as 0:02:04.000,0:02:06.000 a single explanation 0:02:06.000,0:02:09.000 by own approach was to actually 0:02:09.000,0:02:11.000 look at the essays that these people wrote 0:02:11.000,0:02:13.000 and try to figure out 0:02:13.000,0:02:16.000 was there something about the essays i can't predict who would benefit from 0:02:16.000,0:02:18.000 writing verses he wouldn't 0:02:18.000,0:02:21.000 i tried and i couldn't figure it out 0:02:21.000,0:02:25.000 so i gotta number psychologists and other experts to read and write hundreds 0:02:25.000,0:02:26.000 of these essays 0:02:26.000,0:02:30.000 and they couldn't fixya pattern either 0:02:30.000,0:02:32.000 units to try some other strategies cell 0:02:32.000,0:02:36.000 with the help of one of my graduate students partha francis we're on a 0:02:36.000,0:02:37.000 computer program 0:02:37.000,0:02:40.000 and the idea of this computer program was to go into any given text 0:02:40.000,0:02:44.000 and calculate the percentage of words in the attacks that were positive emotion 0:02:44.000,0:02:45.000 words 0:02:45.000,0:02:46.000 negative emotion words 0:02:46.000,0:02:51.000 or words related to topics such as death or sex or violence or 0:02:51.000,0:02:53.000 religion or family 0:02:53.000,0:02:56.000 and as long as we are writing the computer program 0:02:56.000,0:02:59.000 i thought well let's go ahead and throw in some parts of speech pronouns 0:02:59.000,0:03:01.000 prepositions 0:03:01.000,0:03:04.000 because it was easy who cares 0:03:04.000,0:03:05.000 i go back 0:03:05.000,0:03:08.000 start to analyze these dramatic essays 0:03:08.000,0:03:10.000 squiggly discover that 0:03:10.000,0:03:12.000 the content of what people were writing about 0:03:12.000,0:03:16.000 hetnet didn't matter in terms of if they improved in their help they're not 0:03:16.000,0:03:17.000 instead 0:03:17.000,0:03:21.000 ulysses with these job boards pronouns and articles of prepositions and so 0:03:21.000,0:03:22.000 forth 0:03:22.000,0:03:24.000 that didn't matter 0:03:24.000,0:03:26.000 not think about this 0:03:26.000,0:03:27.000 here people are writing about 0:03:27.000,0:03:30.000 deeply disturbing issues 0:03:30.000,0:03:33.000 the actual topics that dealt with 0:03:33.000,0:03:36.000 tragedies devastation horrible things 0:03:36.000,0:03:39.000 the topics themselves in the words associate with those topics made no 0:03:39.000,0:03:40.000 difference 0:03:40.000,0:03:45.000 instead these little words like aryan vi and and didn't matter 0:03:45.000,0:03:47.000 i get looking for the obvious 0:03:47.000,0:03:48.000 but in fact 0:03:48.000,0:03:51.000 and i don't pay attention to what people were saying 0:03:51.000,0:03:54.000 but not how they were saying it 0:03:54.000,0:03:56.000 so how do i go about 0:03:56.000,0:03:58.000 analyzing watch versus how 0:03:58.000,0:04:02.000 well turns out that they're difficult classes of words that makes these makes 0:04:02.000,0:04:04.000 that look at this distinction whatever it is 0:04:04.000,0:04:07.000 if you're looking at what people are writing about you look at when park all 0:04:07.000,0:04:13.000 content word caesar now into the regular verbs it as yet since i'm a adverbs 0:04:13.000,0:04:17.000 you know that's stuff of thought this is the stuff of communication we were 0:04:17.000,0:04:20.000 trying to talk to somebody gogo 0:04:20.000,0:04:23.000 and search terms are all based on these content words 0:04:23.000,0:04:27.000 the other group of words are art class of words urgently cult 0:04:27.000,0:04:28.000 function works 0:04:28.000,0:04:29.000 at funship words 0:04:29.000,0:04:31.000 are made up of the most boring 0:04:31.000,0:04:34.000 words that you can imagine 0:04:34.000,0:04:35.000 they're made up of 0:04:35.000,0:04:38.000 pronouns army he she 0:04:38.000,0:04:40.000 prepositions to of four 0:04:40.000,0:04:44.000 auxiliary verbs and is have 0:04:44.000,0:04:48.000 out wake you up by-catch they'll have to wake up i keep talking about these 0:04:48.000,0:04:50.000 function worth dot 0:04:50.000,0:04:52.000 it turns out these function words 0:04:52.000,0:04:55.000 are really interested because first of all 0:04:55.000,0:04:57.000 there's only about five hundred 0:04:57.000,0:04:59.000 function words in english 0:04:59.000,0:05:02.000 so they account for far less than one percent of all the words we know we hear 0:05:02.000,0:05:04.000 weary 0:05:04.000,0:05:07.000 nevertheless they reflect fifty-five dist 0:05:07.000,0:05:09.000 to sixty percent of all the words that we 0:05:09.000,0:05:11.000 that we are surrounded with their everywhere 0:05:11.000,0:05:13.000 but we don't pay attention to them 0:05:13.000,0:05:15.000 in english and in other languages 0:05:15.000,0:05:17.000 there the shortest words there are a hand 0:05:17.000,0:05:19.000 when they're spoken or with your reading 0:05:19.000,0:05:23.000 pcf into your brain at the speed of less than two tenths of a second 0:05:23.000,0:05:27.000 meaning that they're processed essentially not consciously 0:05:27.000,0:05:29.000 but there's something even more interesting about that 0:05:29.000,0:05:32.000 they are social they are 0:05:32.000,0:05:33.000 profoundly social 0:05:33.000,0:05:36.000 let me give me an example let's say you're walking along 0:05:36.000,0:05:37.000 you see in note on the ground 0:05:37.000,0:05:39.000 you pick it up and says 0:05:39.000,0:05:42.000 i am placing it on the table 0:05:42.000,0:05:44.000 well that kinda makes an skied it doesn't 0:05:44.000,0:05:48.000 by places on the table this to content words placing in table 0:05:48.000,0:05:50.000 all the rest of function worked 0:05:50.000,0:05:52.000 i am yet 0:05:52.000,0:05:54.000 on p 0:05:54.000,0:05:58.000 now the reason this doesn't make sense to most of us 0:05:58.000,0:05:59.000 is it was i 0:05:59.000,0:06:01.000 no idea amma implies 0:06:01.000,0:06:04.000 present tense when was it written 0:06:04.000,0:06:06.000 no idea what it is 0:06:06.000,0:06:08.000 on v table v table 0:06:08.000,0:06:10.000 needs its a table that 0:06:10.000,0:06:11.000 dot author knew about 0:06:11.000,0:06:14.000 and they intended recipient of this note new about 0:06:14.000,0:06:17.000 but nobody else did and in fact 0:06:17.000,0:06:19.000 there's no only has meaning 0:06:19.000,0:06:21.000 to the uh... authored 0:06:21.000,0:06:22.000 and the recipient of the note 0:06:22.000,0:06:28.000 at a particular time in a particular location in fact if i took that no to 0:06:28.000,0:06:30.000 this all turn out six months later and say 0:06:30.000,0:06:34.000 what's this all about there's a good chance that the the off was safe 0:06:34.000,0:06:37.000 no idea 0:06:37.000,0:06:39.000 function of words are social 0:06:39.000,0:06:43.000 they tell us about the author they tell us about the relationship between the 0:06:43.000,0:06:44.000 author of the recipient 0:06:44.000,0:06:47.000 and relationship between the author 0:06:47.000,0:06:49.000 and the topic itself 0:06:49.000,0:06:52.000 is take heart of what i want to talk to you about today 0:06:52.000,0:06:54.000 by analyzing function words 0:06:54.000,0:06:56.000 we start to get a sense 0:06:56.000,0:06:58.000 of who people are quick to relationships are 0:06:58.000,0:07:00.000 how they think about theirselves 0:07:00.000,0:07:01.000 and how they 0:07:01.000,0:07:04.000 connect with others 0:07:04.000,0:07:06.000 whether a lot of function words 0:07:06.000,0:07:10.000 honestly i could talk for several hours about function words but i'm going to 0:07:10.000,0:07:12.000 spare you that it just focus on it 0:07:12.000,0:07:15.000 couple today to just give you a flavor of her 0:07:15.000,0:07:17.000 why they're so interesting 0:07:17.000,0:07:21.000 let's start off with pro downs of the storm up with third-person pronouns like 0:07:21.000,0:07:24.000 t-shirt ye bang 0:07:24.000,0:07:27.000 it turns out some people out there in the world used pronouns these 0:07:27.000,0:07:29.000 third-person pronouns at high rates 0:07:29.000,0:07:31.000 and other people at lower rates 0:07:31.000,0:07:34.000 what kind of person would use 0:07:34.000,0:07:38.000 well you have to think about pronouns as and all function words 0:07:38.000,0:07:39.000 in terms of 0:07:39.000,0:07:42.000 where our people paying attention 0:07:42.000,0:07:45.000 if you are using these third-person pronounced by different definition 0:07:45.000,0:07:47.000 you're paying attention to other people 0:07:47.000,0:07:50.000 you care about other people you're thinking about other people 0:07:50.000,0:07:52.000 at people who use these at high rates 0:07:52.000,0:07:54.000 are much more socially engaged 0:07:54.000,0:07:58.000 we can analyze emails tweets and so forth and get a sense someone's social 0:07:58.000,0:08:01.000 engagement just by looking at this 0:08:01.000,0:08:06.000 how about first-person singular part as a highly me in mind 0:08:06.000,0:08:07.000 okay 0:08:07.000,0:08:11.000 you see tential argument somewhat is attending to their thoughts feelings 0:08:11.000,0:08:12.000 behaviors 0:08:12.000,0:08:15.000 to themselves and subway would use these words more 0:08:15.000,0:08:19.000 what kind of person you think uses aren't words the most 0:08:19.000,0:08:21.000 you're sitting there you're speaking for them 0:08:21.000,0:08:22.000 well somebody who's 0:08:22.000,0:08:25.000 self-centered self-important narcissistic 0:08:25.000,0:08:26.000 uh... 0:08:26.000,0:08:31.000 hungry for power and highest status 0:08:31.000,0:08:34.000 you would be completely wrong 0:08:34.000,0:08:36.000 in fact the person who is 0:08:36.000,0:08:40.000 highest instead issues is on words the least 0:08:40.000,0:08:42.000 the new rephrase that 0:08:42.000,0:08:46.000 the hire anybody isn't status the less they use a high were ds 0:08:46.000,0:08:48.000 the lower so what is in status 0:08:48.000,0:08:51.000 the higher they use a spy works 0:08:51.000,0:08:54.000 i discovered this by analyzing emails 0:08:54.000,0:08:59.000 isdn messages natural conversations business groups and so forth 0:08:59.000,0:09:02.000 in the affects were huge 0:09:02.000,0:09:05.000 i look at these results and i thought 0:09:05.000,0:09:09.000 this must be true for other people but he can't possibly be true for me 0:09:09.000,0:09:13.000 you know i'd love everybody equally 0:09:13.000,0:09:16.000 isolated analyze my own emails 0:09:16.000,0:09:17.000 on the same as everybody else 0:09:17.000,0:09:22.000 alexey melt that i get from the undergraduate student 0:09:22.000,0:09:25.000 dear doctor pennebaker i would like to know if i could possibly meet with you 0:09:25.000,0:09:28.000 because i think i need to change my grades are right back 0:09:28.000,0:09:32.000 dear student thank you so much for your email 0:09:32.000,0:09:36.000 unfortunately uh... later which prices don't work well 0:09:36.000,0:09:39.000 i look at my email to the dean 0:09:39.000,0:09:42.000 dare denied jamie pennebaker and i would like to ask if i could do this and i 0:09:42.000,0:09:45.000 could get that like to do this in the team rice packed 0:09:45.000,0:09:50.000 dear jamie thank you so much for your email so forth 0:09:50.000,0:09:54.000 not everybody is being completely polite 0:09:54.000,0:09:56.000 nobody's putting anybody down 0:09:56.000,0:09:59.000 this is the language of power in status 0:09:59.000,0:10:02.000 it tells us where people are paying attention high status person 0:10:02.000,0:10:07.000 is looking out at the world the los esperamos to be looking more inwardly 0:10:07.000,0:10:09.000 what about others states 0:10:09.000,0:10:10.000 lets move beyond status 0:10:10.000,0:10:14.000 let's look at emotional states 0:10:14.000,0:10:17.000 you would think that someone would be paying more attention to themselves 0:10:17.000,0:10:19.000 if they're in pain 0:10:19.000,0:10:22.000 it could be physical pain or emotional pain 0:10:22.000,0:10:26.000 in fact you alive we look at people who are depressed we've done any studies on 0:10:26.000,0:10:28.000 this we know the people who are depressed 0:10:28.000,0:10:32.000 pay attention to themselves more and they used the word i'm more 0:10:32.000,0:10:36.000 that one of our very first time he's looked at the poetry of suicidal and non 0:10:36.000,0:10:40.000 suicidal poets that we get this research where we 0:10:40.000,0:10:43.000 with through analyzer poetry and initially i thought 0:10:43.000,0:10:46.000 whether big big differences in the degree that they use negative emotion 0:10:46.000,0:10:47.000 words 0:10:47.000,0:10:48.000 not true 0:10:48.000,0:10:54.000 suicidal and non suicidal poets all use negative motion words at high rates 0:10:54.000,0:10:59.000 i think it's part of it is part of the job description 0:10:59.000,0:11:01.000 the big difference was their use of the word on 0:11:01.000,0:11:04.000 suicidal poets used to work hard work 0:11:04.000,0:11:10.000 consider this poll on this is by sylvia plath you later committed suicide 0:11:10.000,0:11:13.000 despotic listen to the way that she uses the word i 0:11:13.000,0:11:15.000 and first-person singular 0:11:15.000,0:11:16.000 and this is the optus 0:11:16.000,0:11:21.000 and taking some lines from her poland not bad girls love song 0:11:21.000,0:11:24.000 eyes shut my eyes and all the world drops dead 0:11:24.000,0:11:27.000 i've missed my live and always born again 0:11:27.000,0:11:30.000 i think a major up inside my head 0:11:30.000,0:11:35.000 by fitting in return the way you said but i grow old and i forget renee 0:11:35.000,0:11:39.000 i think i made you up inside my head 0:11:39.000,0:11:42.000 you can almost see plan 0:11:42.000,0:11:46.000 embracing her sorrow her misery and so forth 0:11:46.000,0:11:50.000 and you can compare her writing with uh... other poets who write about in but 0:11:50.000,0:11:53.000 not suicidal poets who right about lost love 0:11:53.000,0:11:56.000 when they gave him almost see them holding at all 0:11:56.000,0:11:59.000 from a distance of their looking at it from aboard distance 0:11:59.000,0:12:02.000 third-person perspective 0:12:02.000,0:12:04.000 now there's a really interesting things head out uh... 0:12:04.000,0:12:07.000 important theory within psychology about depression 0:12:07.000,0:12:09.000 and people who are depressed arf 0:12:09.000,0:12:14.000 thought to be people who are very high in self-awareness urself focus 0:12:14.000,0:12:16.000 and part of this is a also tend to be 0:12:16.000,0:12:20.000 extremely uh... honest 0:12:20.000,0:12:22.000 there often 0:12:22.000,0:12:23.000 today are it 0:12:23.000,0:12:25.000 they're they're many study showing that they 0:12:25.000,0:12:27.000 have this deficit in they're not able to have 0:12:27.000,0:12:30.000 a positive illusions about ourselves 0:12:30.000,0:12:31.000 those of us who are depressed 0:12:31.000,0:12:35.000 get by every day but holding these insane illusions about the life 0:12:35.000,0:12:36.000 but these people 0:12:36.000,0:12:39.000 are brutally honest 0:12:39.000,0:12:41.000 now this made me wonder 0:12:41.000,0:12:44.000 throwaway depression for just a second could return this entire thing upside 0:12:44.000,0:12:47.000 down to find out if depressed people 0:12:47.000,0:12:50.000 or if we could use the computer program 0:12:50.000,0:12:53.000 linguistic lie-detector let me for anybody so 0:12:53.000,0:12:57.000 in fact we did some studies for we bra people no lab we do some to lie or tell 0:12:57.000,0:12:58.000 the truth 0:12:58.000,0:13:01.000 we analyze court transcripts of people who are all found guilty half of whom 0:13:01.000,0:13:03.000 were exhausted later exonerated 0:13:03.000,0:13:06.000 and the affects rectly quite impressive 0:13:06.000,0:13:10.000 we did a pretty good job at telling to someone who is telling the truth verses 0:13:10.000,0:13:12.000 lying in one of the best words 0:13:12.000,0:13:15.000 was he uses the word i'm people who tell the truth 0:13:15.000,0:13:19.000 used the word i border pony what they're saying liars 0:13:19.000,0:13:26.000 pertaining to hold off distancing themselves 0:13:26.000,0:13:28.000 lie detection depression 0:13:28.000,0:13:32.000 status are all something so we can look at but one of the things that i'm most 0:13:32.000,0:13:36.000 interested now is looking at groups looking at the relationship between two 0:13:36.000,0:13:38.000 people can you tell how to people 0:13:38.000,0:13:39.000 forget who won't bite 0:13:39.000,0:13:43.000 by analyzing the weight they're using function worked with each other 0:13:43.000,0:13:47.000 and the answer is yes we look at the percentage of each class of words and we 0:13:47.000,0:13:51.000 come up with the metrics mccall language style matchy 0:13:51.000,0:13:55.000 and the more that two people are matching their function word use 0:13:55.000,0:13:57.000 the more there on the same page 0:13:57.000,0:14:00.000 the more they're talking about something in the same way 0:14:00.000,0:14:04.000 now what i said we started to look at this was with speed dating 0:14:04.000,0:14:06.000 not going to tell you 0:14:06.000,0:14:09.000 love speed dating i've really it just 0:14:09.000,0:14:12.000 i would never do it in a million years 0:14:12.000,0:14:16.000 but anchorage all of you to go do speed dating it when you do 0:14:16.000,0:14:19.000 invite a researcher along because there is no carradine 0:14:19.000,0:14:21.000 it is better 0:14:21.000,0:14:25.000 we've been involved in st speed dating projects where 0:14:25.000,0:14:26.000 people coming in 0:14:26.000,0:14:30.000 and in there for a minute date we tape-recorded they know we are heavily 0:14:30.000,0:14:33.000 transcribe the not the way they talk 0:14:33.000,0:14:36.000 the more they match in their language 0:14:36.000,0:14:39.000 the more likely they are to go out on a date we can predict who will go on a 0:14:39.000,0:14:44.000 date at rates slightly better than the people themselves here 0:14:44.000,0:14:48.000 we've done studies with young dating couples where we uh... 0:14:48.000,0:14:51.000 they had to be in our study they have to give this ten days of the instant 0:14:51.000,0:14:53.000 messages our audience 0:14:53.000,0:14:58.000 and what we do is we analyze their audience with its this style matching 0:14:58.000,0:15:02.000 and we do much much better than they do have prediction if they'll be together 0:15:02.000,0:15:05.000 three months later 0:15:05.000,0:15:08.000 the fact is his these words are telling us how individuals and 0:15:08.000,0:15:10.000 pairs of people are connecting 0:15:10.000,0:15:13.000 what about groups now this is an area that were network you know we're looking 0:15:13.000,0:15:17.000 at working groups summary groups that we've uh... work with people in the 0:15:17.000,0:15:21.000 business school would look at uh... people you get to know you groups 0:15:21.000,0:15:25.000 we do at occasional groups and what we're finding his bike looking at group 0:15:25.000,0:15:29.000 of say five a six people we cannot get a sense of how productive the group will 0:15:29.000,0:15:32.000 be and also how cohesive the group 0:15:32.000,0:15:35.000 simply by looking at the style matching 0:15:35.000,0:15:37.000 but here's where things are starting to get you christine 0:15:37.000,0:15:43.000 bite tracking a groups this interacting and say they're all interacting online 0:15:43.000,0:15:47.000 we can't have a computer of monitoring how the group is behaving imagine for 0:15:47.000,0:15:48.000 example 0:15:48.000,0:15:49.000 you are up 0:15:49.000,0:15:50.000 in this group 0:15:50.000,0:15:52.000 and a computer approach 0:15:52.000,0:15:54.000 comes to your group every now and then 0:15:54.000,0:15:57.000 anna message comes and says 0:15:57.000,0:16:00.000 you guys are not paying attention to one another 0:16:00.000,0:16:04.000 you need to be you'd be more attentive to what the other people are saying or 0:16:04.000,0:16:07.000 you guys for the last few minutes have strayed off topic 0:16:07.000,0:16:11.000 try to get back on topic or that loud mouth in the group the computer comes in 0:16:11.000,0:16:12.000 missus 0:16:12.000,0:16:17.000 joan for the last five minutes you said fifty percent of the words when she 0:16:17.000,0:16:18.000 stand back 0:16:18.000,0:16:21.000 any courage others to talk 0:16:21.000,0:16:24.000 we have now created a program that does the s 0:16:24.000,0:16:28.000 and we've now tested out with hundreds of groups and that we are getting very 0:16:28.000,0:16:31.000 very promising results 0:16:31.000,0:16:33.000 now you can start to see 0:16:33.000,0:16:37.000 why a m so excited about this world the function works 0:16:37.000,0:16:40.000 that we're not taking this in all these in 0:16:40.000,0:16:43.000 directions that uh... i'd never would've thought about 0:16:43.000,0:16:46.000 we've been looking at it in terms of looking at historical records can you 0:16:46.000,0:16:51.000 tell if a particular uh... explorer committed suicide tourist murdered we've 0:16:51.000,0:16:52.000 got a project on that 0:16:52.000,0:16:56.000 can you look at a company and get a sense of how their internal 0:16:56.000,0:17:00.000 communications are working how well they are connected with the people in their 0:17:00.000,0:17:04.000 company or with their clients we look at that to corporate uh... earnings reports 0:17:04.000,0:17:09.000 or the quarterly phone calls to get a sense of the internal groups dynamics of 0:17:09.000,0:17:12.000 the company we've worked with the government to try to get a sense of 0:17:12.000,0:17:17.000 terrorist groups and how if they are likely to behaved badly 0:17:17.000,0:17:21.000 we help people sort out their love lives it 0:17:21.000,0:17:23.000 you can start to say that 0:17:23.000,0:17:24.000 bike harnessing these 0:17:24.000,0:17:29.000 east the power of these function words we can get a sense of individuals and 0:17:29.000,0:17:33.000 groups and help people are connected 0:17:33.000,0:17:36.000 now but i wouldn't hurt you to do 0:17:36.000,0:17:38.000 i'd like you to go home 0:17:38.000,0:17:39.000 tonight 0:17:39.000,0:17:43.000 and i want you to start looking at your emails here tweets year high amps or 0:17:43.000,0:17:44.000 whatever 0:17:44.000,0:17:46.000 added doing that 0:17:46.000,0:17:48.000 what i hope you start to see is 0:17:48.000,0:17:52.000 first of all you learn a little bit more about your relationship with others but 0:17:52.000,0:17:53.000 more than anything 0:17:53.000,0:17:56.000 i hope you learned a little bit of about yourself
