Today I will write about my reflect of language and the speech of Pagel in which he speak about the lenguage. Pagel is scientists who reflect about the origin of the
language, about the function of the languages and he has a hypothesis about the
future of the language.
Pagel suggest that language is responsible of
the evolved of humanity because the language allow transmit the knowledge,
other think that he thinks is that the language is ability characteristic on
human. I am agreeing whit the first suggest, but whit the second suggest I am
not agree because is very difficult to check and prove that the languages exist
only in the humans.
The speech of Pagel makes me reflect about how is possible
that something likes language that is so rational and which operate thrown logical
rules can express subjective emotions. I think that is possible because the
emotions like the language are social things. I mean I think emotions and language are more developed when community bond
exist.
Pagel foresees as the future (in this global society in which we live) will be unnecesary have one language that
permit get on, that permit connect whit different persons of different countries.
About that, I think that is a fact, but the problem whith that, and whith the globalization in general is the loss of the original culture, and the absorption of little
nation for biggest and powerful nations.
I feel that the Spanish is a language that is
expressive of Latin culture, is a language that permit the expression of
emotions, that is reflect in the Latin-American music and literature. I like the culture of Latin-American I am
proud of our culture but I am not proud of the Chilean culture because Chile
search be like USA and European countries.
I am also proud to be from Latin America. I find it embarassing that Chileans want to be something we are not:(
