[TOMT] [video] A talk (maybe TED?) about relationships between different languages

Hey! I've been searching this for a week or two and I can't find it. I think I saw it around 6 months ago.

It's a talk, maybe in a TED/TEDx format, about how languages try to minimize misunderstanding when you suddenly drop a word or sound. Which is why some languages have declinations, others force an explicit subject, etc.

I think the speaker was a male and he gave many examples. Mainly English, German and Japanese.

It was really interesting and I'm dying to find it.
