About the video that we
watching in class, I agree with Mark Pagel, the evolution (natural selection) let that
we are different one of one, but, principally, the language is the fundamental
factor that to make the “magic”. Well, even the good example of the Babel
Tower, that example symbolizes the power that the language had, such power that
it differentiate us of others species, and with us.
Now, the existence of different languages had advantages and disadvantages;
first the opposition that we can find is that we and everything else people of
the word can’t communicate of a correct way, but with the technology that the
human make (translator for example) we can communicate without problems, the
globalization can join us, since far and long distances (for example the
satellite signal, the internet and all it derivatives, like facebook, the mail
and chat system, and others). However, have different languages; it does to
make unique identities and personalities.
I am a member (and I feel part of it) of a community of speakers, in this case
is about the people with Spanish Language, in specific, to the “way” of Chilean
identity; additionally, I have a way that I speak different to the all people
of Spanish Language, I refer to the way of expression.
