Language‚ beginning in prehistoric times‚ has been key to distinguishing between different societies. It was a vital tool for separating the Sumerians from the Egyptians and so forth. Well‚ that initiative strength of language is still true today‚ but only to some extent. With the vast migration and mixing of cultures over the centuries‚ language‚ alone‚ has weakened in terms of being a mere indication of “ethnicity” (Rakic‚ Steffens‚ & Mummendey‚ 2011‚ pg. 18).
