10/27 Intro to Language

Agenda Quotes about language Three Rules about language END GOAL: Start to contemplate if language is a reliable way of knowledge.

Quote 1 “Our language is the reflection of ourselves. A language is an exact reflection of the character and growth of its speakers.” –Cesar Chavez What do you think of when you think of this quote: structure or content? If someone were to examine your language- what would it say about your character?

Language vs. Non-Language Language is…  1- Rule-governed  2- Intended  3- Creative and open-ended

Language is rule-governed Grammar  Often times, no real reason, but all that matters is that everyone agrees on the rule. Vocabulary  For communication to work, it does not matter what noises or squiggles we correlate with objects, so long as there is general agreement within the tribe, group, community….

Rule- Governed Do you think that there is a big enough focus on grammar and vocabulary in our school system? In your personal education? EXPLAIN your answer with detail. HINT: Why is it/isn’t important to understand vocabulary and grammar?

Language is intended. Language is a form of communication, but not all communication is language  You are bored in class and, while the teacher is writing on the board, you catch someone’s eye and make a yawning gesture.  You are trying to look interested in what someone says and to your HORROR you find yourself starting to yawn.

Language is Intended You put $$ in vending machine, get snickers. Although information was communicated, there is no language. The vending machine does not UNDERSTAND that you want a snickers.

Language is intended. Body Language What do my two faces mean?

Language is intended. Is body language a reliable way to obtain knowledge? What are some of the contributing factors you would need in order for it to be accurately interpreted?

Language is creative and open-ended. We are able to create and understand sentences that we have never seen before.  Like that one.  And like that one up there.

Language is creative and open-ended. Language changes and develops  Selfie is now in the dictionary  Shakespeare introduced several new words: “obscene” “frugal” “dwindle”  We constantly borrow words  Algebra – Arabic  Kindergarten –German

Quote 2 “We’re losing social skills the human interaction skills, how to read a person’s mood, to read their body language, how to be patient until the moment is right to make or press a point. Too much exclusive use of electronic information dehumanizes what is a very, very, important part of community life and living together.” – Vincent Nichols Agree? Disagree? Are you guilty?

Question 1 Describe body language that showcases:  1- Power  2- Unhappiness  3- Anger  4- Confusion  5- Contentment
