ACCEPT OUR
MONEY
THE POINT IS THAT LANGUAGE IS REALLY NEEDED FOR US TO COMMUNICATE
 “LINGUISTICS IS NO LONGER JUST LEARNING THE LANGUAGE. BUT MUST ALSO STUDY THE LITERATURE,
CULTURE, LINGUISTICS, AND SO ON. WHY? BECAUSE LANGUAGE IS A CULTURAL PRODUCT THAT CANNOT BE
SEPARATED FROM ITS CONTEXT. IT CANNOT BE SEPARATED FROM THE SOCIAL, POLITICAL, AND CULTURAL
CONTEXT”
LANGUAGE BEGINS TO DEVELOP WHEN TRIBES WHO HAVE THE SAME LANGUAGE BEGIN TO
DISPERSE AND MIGRATE
LANGUAGE CAN BE CONSIDERED THE
GREATEST INVENTION OF HUMAN.
GREECE, THE PLACE WHERE THE ALPHABET WAS BORN FOR THE FIRST TIME.
LITERATURE THAT CONTINUES TO DEVELOP MAKES SCIENTISTS INCREASINGLY RESEARCHING THE
WORDS IN IT
HUMANS HAVE
BEEN ABLE TO
COMPOSE
LANGUAGE FOR
MACHINES
“THE COOL THING IS THAT WE CAN
LEARN ABOUT MANY THINGS IN
THIS WORLD, BECAUSE LANGUAGE
IS A WINDOW TO SEE THE WORLD.
YOU WANT TO KNOW A LOT ABOUT
THE WORLD, ONE OF THEM IS
LEARNING A LANGUAGE, BECAUSE
LANGUAGE MAKES US RICHER IN
TERMS OF KNOWLEDGE. SO IT’S
FUN, IT’S NOT ONLY JAPANESE, BUT
WE KNOW A LOT ABOUT JAPAN,
BECAUSE WE CAN READ
MATERIALS, LISTEN, WATCH MOVIES
IN JAPANESE.”
BECAUSE OUR BRAINS ARE SMARTER THAN
OTHER CREATURES, AND THIS ALLOWS US TO
WORK TOGETHER. AND THAT ALL CAN
HAPPEN THANKS TO THE LANGUAGE FOR US
TO COMMUNICATE.
