Power of Language
The Impact of Language to Us
There is a famous quote that says “no man is an island”. The quote means that everyone needs a neighbour, a friend, a teacher, a society, or others that can stay by his side. But how can he stay in that society if he does not know how to communicate with others? Then isn’t it better if that man would just stay on an island alone? With this, we can say that it is important to communicate and we use language to communicate. Therefore, language can either unite or divide us. In order for us people to survive in this world, we should know how to communicate with words because not everyone can read body language or sign language. When we need something, we should learn how to say it. In 2005, my family and I went to the United States for vacation. We stayed there for about two weeks where we went to lots of places which included the Golden Gate Bridge, Grand Canyon, SeaWorld San Diego, and Disneyland in California. When we were in Disneyland, we were having so much fun enjoying the rides in the amusement park. After lunch, my brother and sister said that they wanted to go to a scary ride, but my parents didn’t like to so my family split up into two. When we split up, I suddenly changed my mind and told my mom that I wanted to go with my siblings. My mom told me that I could so I went to my siblings, but I wasn’t able to find them. I kept looking for them for about 30 minutes until finally I gave up. I went to a specific spot where I could be spotted easily, and I waited for about another 30 minutes. When about 2 hours have passed, I started crying. A policewoman even passed by me and didn’t even take care of me and I was around 7-8 years old that year. My parents found me in about 3 hours later and they didn’t even know that I was missing. To summarize, we should know how to communicate with others or else we wouldn’t survive in this world.
If language would mean dialects or such, I would say that language has evolved for
