Language is a crucial part to life, both socially and physically. You might think language cant be physical, well it can. You reading this post right now you are using your inner voice, all of your inner thoughts come from your inner voice. If you never were to have learned how to talk how would you think in your mind. Would you have thoughts, would you use your own language? In the podcast we listened to in class they explain the story of a 27 year old man who was born deaf and had never learned language, something we take for granted as simple as being able to tell someone that a table is a table this man didn’t know. Language is how we we communicate with each other, ourselves and the world. If you were to never know language you wouldn’t be able to properly understand the world around us.
Language is something we obviously something we use to communicate with one another. Whether you are using verbal language, physical language or visual you are using a certain method to communicate a point. This in itself is language. Verbal is talking exchanging information using your voice, physical could be considered things that you can see and interpret that way in order to receive the information, and physical would be something like body language or sign language. Any way that someone can interpret and give information should be considered language, it doesn’t just have to be verbal.
