oral, graphic, gestures, signs. All of these are
different modes of realisation of one natural
language.
The Semantic system of the language

 Why can not we rename things easily?

The language contains a large number of signs and

their constant change or replacement would cause
chaos in the language;
2. The nation or the community which speaks and
thus creates the language is generally known to be
conservative and thus, they would not welcome such
constant changes of the semantic or other systems of
the language which, by all means, would lead to
other chaotic changes of the community.
