That I decided to rewrite some of the old articles with added knowledge and the changes The world has gone through and now it is about “”Languages “I have not written before, so this is a new post 🙂
Languages are complex systems of communication that reflect the rich diversity of human culture, with over 7,000 languages spoken worldwide today.
Definition and Characteristics
Language is a structured system of communication that consists of grammar and vocabulary. It is the primary means by which people convey meaning, both in spoken and signed forms, and may also be conveyed through writing. language is characterized by its cultural and historical diversity, with significant variations observed between cultures and across time. languages possess the properties of productivity and displacement, which enable the creation of an infinite number of sentences, and the ability to refer to objects, events, and ideas that are not immediately present in the discourse. The use of language relies on social convention and is acquired through learning.
Estimates of the number of human languages in the world vary between 5,000 and 7,000. Precise estimates depend on languages and dialects. Natural languages are spoken, signed, or both; however, any language can be encoded into secondary media using auditory, visual. writing, whistling, signing, language but written or signed language is the way to inscribe or encode the natural speech or gestures.
Depending on philosophical perspectives regarding the definition of language and meaning, when used as a general concept, “language” may refer to the cognitive ability to learn and use systems of complex communication, or to describe the set of rules that makes up these systems, or the set of utterances that can be produced from those rules. All languages rely on the process of signs to particular meanings. manual and tactile languages contain a system that governs how symbols are used. to form sequences known as words.
Language is thought to have gradually diverged from earlier primate communication systems when early acquired the ability to form a theory of mind and shared intentionality. This development is sometimes thought to have coincided with an increase in brain volume, and many linguists see the structures of language as having evolved to serve specific communicative and social functions. Language is processed in many different locations. Humans acquire language through social interaction in early childhood, and children generally speak fluently by approximately three years old. Language and culture are codependent. Therefore, in addition to its strictly communicative uses, language has social uses such as signifying group identity, social stratification, as well as use for social grooming and entertainment.
Languages evolve and diversify over time, and the history of their evolution can be reconstructed by comparing modern languages to determine which traits their ancestral languages must have had in order for the later developmental stages to occur. A group of languages that descend from a common ancestor is known as a language family; in contrast, a language that has been demonstrated not to have any living or non-living relationship with another language is called a language isolate. There are also many unclassified languages whose relationships have not been established, and may have not existed at all. Academic consensus holds that between 50% and 90% of languages spoken at the beginning of the 21st century will probably have become extinct by the year 2100.
When speaking of language as a general concept, definitions can be used which stress different aspects. These definitions also entail different approaches and understandings of language, and they also inform different and often incompatible schools of linguistic theory. Debates about the nature and origin of language go back to the ancient world. Greek philosophers such as Gorgias and Plato debated the relation between words, concepts and reality. Gorgias argued that language could represent neither the objective experience nor people experience, and that communication and truth were therefore impossible. Plato maintained that communication is possible because language represents ideas and concepts that exist independently of, and prior to, language.
Grammar is the study of how meaningful elements within a language can be combined into utterances. Morphemes can either be free or bound. If they are free to be moved around within an utterance, they are usually called words, and if they are bound to other words they are called affixes. The way in which meaningful elements can be combined within a language is governed by rules. The rules of the internal structure of phrases and sentences are called syntax.
