Language: A Voice

I found this Blog : English Language Teaching and Linguistics and found this to be an interesting site as the English is being learned by Turkish Students, who
have an insightful view of language and lingustics.

a commenter writes:

:Language is a mean based on mental and spiritual processes and social conditions to express and exchange thoughts, imaginations, cognitions, feelings and informations. It is also a symbolic interaction and a kind of behavior. It is our language which makes us to human beings, because it is a system of social norms, allowing us to live together in a community

.I would define language as a device to communicate. And as you know, you have to know how your device is working. It is important to use your device effectively. A saying says: “If you do not know the power of words, you can not imagine how powerful persons might be. Thus the usage of our language is very significant. If you know playing with language or words you are able to master almost everything, but if you do not know how to handle with, you can not even gain self knowledge not to mention success.

Briefly concerning the abstract aspect I would define language as a matter of opinion, it is one’s ideology or world outlook for Ludwig Wittgenstein says: “The borders of my language are the borders of my life”.

and another,

WHAT İS LANGUAGE? Language is a sound system with which we express our thouts,ideas,emotions and also we can understand what the others say.ıt help us think. By means of language we interact with other people.

Besides,language is everything of a nation. Culture,politics, tradition of a nation are shaped thanks to the language.What the role of water is to human beings the language is the same for a nation. It is surely and mostly is the major yearning of a human being.

All science,literature,tecnology develope by means of language.Language and humanbeing go together.The longer a nation's language lives the longer a nation lives.
