>Humans learn from the structure of the world -- not the structure of language.

No we don't. Humans don't experience or perceive reality. We perceive a nice modification of it and that's after excluding all sense data points we simply aren't capable of perceiving at all.

Your brain is constantly shifting and fabricating sense data based on internal predictions and that form the basis of what you call reality. You are not learning from the structure of the world. You are learning from a simplified model of it that is fabricated at parts.
