Carlos once said‚ “As human beings we do change‚ grow‚ adapt‚ perhaps even learn and become wise”. This quote is a perfect example of the reason why we code switch and how it impacts us as people. Code switching is an important part of everyone’s lives. The communities we interact with on an everyday basis have different expectations from us. We fill these interactions between groups with lingo and terms that are relatable and common with the community we belong in. The constant switching is something

McCarthy uses language in the road to stir readers emotions. The Road is a story of a father and son fighting to survive in a post apocalyptic world where the basics of humanity have disappeared. The writing is fragmented‚ sparse and‚ from the beginning‚ reflects the barren and bleak landscape through which the father and Son are traveling. McCarthy abandons quotation marks in dialogue‚ he dispenses minimal punctuation. His toying with the rules of grammar and punctuation in effect emphasises the

Unlike today’s modern theatre‚ the simple ‘stage allowed for swift‚ fluid action and a concentration on language’. The Jacobean stage would have bought the colours of ‘language’ to life. For example‚ A vice figure like Iago would use exaggerated words and gestures to stress his strong feeling of antagonism towards Othello. Likewise‚ a melancholic Hamlet would experiment with words in an overstated
