Language is what makes the world go round, if it weren’t for language trading and whole nations would not have been able to expand, if it weren’t for language society would not prosper. Language plays a vital part of our existence, without being able to communicate with one another through language this world wouldn’t be as prosperous as it is today.
Achebe talks about a time when maybe our ancestors didn’t have language… I couldn’t imagine living in such a time, not having language,how do you communicate, I’m sure so many mis-understandings happened because of the lack of language.
Language is very important, for nations to understand one another there must be communication and in order for there to be communication there must be language.
Though an animal does not have the same language as we do, I do believe they use some form of it to communicate with one another, they use different sounds that sound like howls or barks to us but it’s their language, it’s their way of communicating with one another, just like birds chirping etc… language is universal and it truly is what makes our world go round.
Though language comes in different forms it is still the main way to communicate and it is important to be able to communicate and language makes this possible. Wars have been avoided as well as fought because of language. When children learn to speak and communicate their needs with their parents or care takers it makes it so much easier to care for them or tend to those needs, so too is the way our world works and functions, without communication that language makes possible, nations, people etc… would not be able to understand each other, language brings unity as well.
My example of parallel elements or writings is not only my blog! because I repeated myself quite a few times, and parallel structures do repeat themselves but also in the writing of Mencius on page 17 in where the following is repetitious making it an ex sample of parallel writing:
Water indeed will flow indifferently to the east or west, but will it flow indifferently up or down? the tendency of ma’s nature to good is like the tendency of water to flow downwards. There ar none but have this tendency to good, just as all water flows down wards. This is my example of a parrallel.
