Removing Linguistic Barriers in a Cosmopolitan Era

In a world where life is absolutely linked with each other and sharing of thoughts need no medium, language and gestures have played a great role since early time. Expression varies from laugh to tear and the giggle we hear makes the heart smear. Knowledge is not always readily available so communication and language play an even vital role and we cannot survive without a mutual connect.

We have learnt about the law of nature vs nurture and it starts from the ancient history that legends have been writing on this admiration. As to the question whether human behavior is derived by inborn human forces or the product of our learning and environment has been a popular discussion at social and scientific gatherings for years. To majority, the longevity of this discussion infers that we haven’t actually learned enough. In truth, immense number of scientific advances has extremely improved our level of knowledge and understanding. While admittedly we can quote that the debate has resulted in us seeking more clarity and track progress. The process of learning languages is termed as Language Acquisition Device (LAD) which has enabled us not only to learn the growth and development in language and has greatly contributed to eliminate linguistic barriers. Our capacity for language is the same all over the world in wildly different cultures and environments. Children quickly learn language and learn in developmental stages that occur at the same age no matter what differing environments they grow up in. Cognitive psychologists use the LAD theory as evidence to support the concept that language is both a learned and innate capability.
