He gave man speech.... “He gave man speech, and speech created thought, Which is the measure of the Universe”—Prometheus Unbound, Shelley Human beings ... are very much at the mercy of the particular language which has become the medium of expression for their society. It is quite an illusion to imagine that one adjusts to reality essentially without the use of language and that language is merely an incidental means of solving specific problems of communication and reflection. The fact of the matter is that the “real world” is to a large extent unconsciously built up on the language habits of the group. The Status of Linguistics as a Science, 1929, Edward Sapir i think it's a strong words which force you to realise that your level of language skills helps better to resolve every life problems.In every sphere of life you needs to communicate with different people from work and university with parents, friends , boyfriend (girlfriend) and every time you express your feelings differently by using language. Language shows your care, your understanding, your love, your interest....your intellect.....So we have an instrument like a language for explaining our needs but why we meet poeple who speak the same language live in the same country and do not understand you?! ....And in the same time we meet a person who lives in different country have other culture...and you feel that much things so similar between us. We have the same sens of humor , life principles ....so yes, language it's so important but even when you have a good skills of language, a large vocabulary and can describe your feelings and understanding by the sophisticated way it's still not guarantee to find person who realy will understand you...... What do you think about this? Pleas feel free to correct any my mistakes...I would be realy appreciate for help in any way: grammar or sense of my topic=)
