Language at it's most..

What's language? Is it just a method to comunicate something? Does it need words, or even symbols? Language is just a system that uses patterns, symbols, and signs that are capable of comunicating something to us; eventhough that "symbol" or group of symbols has nothing to do with the real thing. For example, if I have the word sunset, theres no symbol or sign that appears in a sunset, but still I'm capable of knowing that does symbols placed in that specific order mean something. Language isn't really that importante to comunicate something. Just an expretion from the face, or even a tear with a certain gesture can mean way diferent things. Comunication is always present for humans, the main problem is that, as humans as we are, we get used to something. We got used to a language "an easier way to comunicate" making us us less or even forget that there are other ways to say something without the need of language. Nowdays, society, is structure and created in a way that without language it's quite difficult for any individual to have a good living. Language went from being a way to comunicate, help, and become better... to something that actually hurts, and discriminates others. Without language, human society would collapse in less than a day. Humans are a synonym to language. So many languages, for the same specie. I don't know about you, but FIFTY THOUSAND languages for the same can of specimen, that way to many, and it's simply ridiculous why would we need so many? With the so called "globalization" humans are more in need of knowing more of this FIFTY THOUSAND languages, cause everyday we are closer together to each other, jobs aren't only withing the country but maybe with several others. Maybe a few thousand years ago language wasent important, and humans were able to comunicate in other ways; but society has made us in a way that language is the pillar of our life, because we lost every other way of comunicating with one another.
