The expression<em> "the map is not the territory", </em>was first said by the Polish scientist, <em>Alfred Korzybski.</em>

It is a metaphor. There is the reality of something (as perceived by the senses).  And there are labels, symbols, abstraction of that reality created by the mind/thought for the sake  of convenience, communication, or to make undersanding easier. We are often looking at maps rather than the territory, without realising it. Mind is an expert at doing this.

Korzybski held that many people do confuse maps with territories, that is, confuse models of reality with reality itself. In other words, the description of the thing is not the thing itself. The model is not reality.

How do various people on board experience the impact of the iceberg? Why does Walter Lord, in this chapter, show how different p
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Upon impact,

A lot of people only know that the ship came to a halt. Most people were indifferent.

The wife of Astor went back to bed, Lieutenant Steffanson who had been drinking a Lemonade resumed his pre-occupation.

Some of the card players were too concerned about their game to be concerned. For the most part of the chapter, many people were unaware, others who noticed didn't realise the gravity of the damage and how it would define their lives.

Walter Lord showed the reaction of people to the experience of the impact partly to show that they had the utmost confidence in the vessel and partly because it presents a great contrast to their reaction afterwards when the ship starts to sink.

Cheers

What does this statement mean: "If you command language, you command the world."
quester [9]

Command over the language English helps you in commanding the whole world. It is because if you are proficient in the language English then you are like a person who has a greater vocabulary and all the skills are perfect for you. The world is a place where the international language is English. So when you have a command in English you can go to any country and get a higher edication and even a great job.

That means even if you are not a native English the world will show respect to you. When you command English you can reach in any platform very easily. You can get your own opportunity to stand yourself.
