Let´s think of a connection between language experience and sound perception. As humans, we already learn in the uterus patterns of language, especially the intonation. Later we add rhythmic and melodic components.
This affects our hearing preference and therefore the acceptance and adaptation of lingual and melodical patterns. Maybe there is a linkage of these prenatal and childhood experience and sound perception overall. This thought could be a fragment of a greater explanation of the socio-cultural selection process for aesthetics.
This thought become more interesting when we invert it. We associate music with prosodic memories. A tone for example with similar rhythmic and tonal characteristics as a word could trigger the same emotions and ideas. This could be useful while writing and composing music.
