Answer to Question 2

Language is a set of symbols that expresses ideas and enables people

to think and communicate with one another. Verbal (spoken) language

and nonverbal (written or gestured) language helps us describe reality.

One of our most important human attributes is the ability to use language

to share our experiences, feelings, and knowledge with others. Language

can create visual images in our heads. Language also allows people to

distinguish themselves from outsiders and to maintain group boundaries

and solidarity. Anthropological linguists Edward Sapir and Benjamin

Whorf have suggested that language not only expresses our thoughts and

perceptions, but also influences our perception of reality. According to the

Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, language shapes the view of reality of its

speakers.

If people are able to think only through language, then language must precede thought. For

example, the Eskimo language has more than twenty words associated with snow, making

it possible for people to make subtle distinctions regarding different types of snowfalls.
