ブーバ/キキ効果 - Wikipedia
ブーバ/キキ効果（ブーバ キキこうか、Bouba/kiki effect）とは心理学で、言語音と図形の視覚的印象との連想について一般的に見られる関係をいう。心理学者ヴォルフガング・ケーラーが1929年に初めて報告し、命名はV.S.ラマチャンドランによる[1]。 テストに使われる図形の例。この図を被験者に示して、どちらがブーバで、どちらがキキかを聞くと、大多数の人間が「左の図形がキキで、右の図形がブーバだ」と答える。 それぞれ丸い曲線とギザギザの直線とからなる2つの図形を被験者に見せる。どちらか一方の名がブーバで、他方の名がキキであるといい、どちらがどの名だと思うかを聞く。すると、98%ほどの大多数の人は「曲線図形がブーバで、ギザギザ図形がキキだ」と答える[2]。しかもこの結果は被験者の母語にはほとんど関係がなく、また大人と幼児でもほとんど変わらないとされる。このブーバ／キキの対比は一般には

This picture is used as a test to demonstrate that people may not attach sounds to shapes arbitrarily.

The Beautiful Dissociation of the Japanese Language
When I tell people around the world that I've been living in Japan for over a decade, many look both impressed and mystified at once. The place has a good reputation. Some folks are in awe at the temples and the gardens, others at the nature or the food. The extreme tidiness and civility of the local culture are the target of universal admiration. But many of those same people see the local langua
Which word begins with "y" and looks like an axe in this picture?
