A recent study found that no matter what language(s) you speak, the most frequent words you use are positive. The study conducted by Australian researchers looked at 10 different languages, analyzed over five million human assessments, and had participants rank the positivity of various words from texts in their language. Researchers discovered that overall, between 70 and 88 percent of all the words used are positive. Some languages, like Spanish, are more positive than other languages, like Russian, but overall the way we express ourselves is usually conveyed with positive words.
Language shows humans are intrinsically optimistic
