I remember days when I have told folks,that language is only a means of commumication
and we do not have to make a big issue of it ,if one uses it well or not,as long as we can
Communicate.
Well not any more.
One day we were off to
“ How to keep our world as wonderfull as it is”
We found the textile institute where it was to be conducted and loafted around.After we had got him into the auditorium to write,we were idling around the garden,when we hit upon a game of ‘DUMB CHARADES”.
We sat under the shade of a tree and picked up names from Prince Charles to cinema titles leading on to more complicated things and expressions of affection and routine activities.
I certainly think that this game sure brings out more depth to expressions, that makes words so superficial and shallow in writing and speaking.This suddenly brings to life the use of arms and eyes and other means of gestures to communicate ,which would not have been used for this at all.
Through this sign language game I have come to realize that languages can also be an art of expressing oneself and not just a means of communication.
