      I don't agree with you. Human languages are pretty redundant, I would call it an encoding algorithm instead

      Would you call converting binary to Base64 a compression algorithm?

      Issue is I am convinced that human language is not something strict unlike math. If calling human language a compression (assuming that some specific piece of information in our brain consumes X*N bytes and language is X*N/C where X, N and C are positive real numbers), it is a lossy algorithm.

      But what about same abstract idea in our brain being represented in different way using same language (English for example) assuming that all individuals speak the language at the same level? Don't you find this redundant?
