Reflection on language. Tripti :)
After having the discussion about language, according to me language is a way of communicating with people to and having to let them know on how you feel. You can communicate with people in different ways, like the use of text messages, pictures,and many more, language is how you portray tht specific means of communication. For example if you take textng, language can differ the way you lay out your texts, if they have a number of smiley faces, the language portrayed to the reader would be more friendly than the text messages with exclamation marks and caps locked which gives out the feeling of anger and frustration. Language is not only what is written, its the help to understanding of communication we are trying to convey to the other individual. Sometimes language can differ on understanding, this means that we need to understand what the individual is trying to say to us, For example if I say i don't like my phone, this may mean that there could be a certain app in my phone that I do not like. it doesn't mean I dislike the entire phone. In the same way if I say i don't want to eat doesn't mean that the food is not good, it could mean i am not hungry thus language can be interpreted in different ways by different individuals as it can have more than one meaning to it. language according to me is a way of communicating to others, which not necessarily could be written or spoken but the way its layed out makes it effective in its own way as through the use of images and many more it could also be portrayed, language if understood could be in many forms, it is just something that needs to be understood between the individuals
