Common uses of language, and its complex side

Language is used by human beings to convey information, ideas and thoughts, tell things, speak and do such other things. It is used in making songs, singing them and writing, making a speech, teaching, asking, answering and other similar things. However this is only a very simplified understanding of what language is and what it can do.

The complexity of what language really implies can only be understood when it is studied in a comparative manner, comparing such languages as English with such languages as Indian or Asian feudal languages.

Each language has different manners of arranging information. For example, I have read that there is a language among the aborigines of Australia, in which plural is made by repeating the word twice. Even though this information may seem simple, there could be powerful codes connecting to this, which may have powerful influence on many other words that connect to this; and also to the ways and manner of the society that speaks this language.

What I want to say here is that a language can create a specific picture of what it is trying to convey. When it is trying to visualise the local society, it can create a particular pattern by which the society is designed. When the society speaks that particular language, the society is more or less patterned into that design. Even though, it may seem a simple thing, the fact is that the design is powerful, and it is difficult to maintain or develop a social system that does not conform to that design; when a social group speaks that language.
