DescriptionLanguage is the way human beings

communicate with one another, being it Spoken, Written, Sign, or Body Language. We all use language to be able to transmit one’s ideas and thoughts with others. It is even applicable to say that in the diverse branches of language further subgroups have been invented, for example in Spoken and Written, the different languages and dialects existing modernly in the world.

Importance in EducationLanguage is crucial in a successful development

of an education. It would be improbable and theoretically impossible for someone to learn something in an unknown language. Lets say youre trying to learn History, but youre only taught in Swahili for instance, you wont understand anything, therefore you wont learn. So, we can observe that language, any form of it, is essential because it is the way the student is taught, the means for the student-teacher relation, for a flourishing education.

ProblemsSome problems there are with language are

that some words or expressions cannot be translated from one language to another. Other more simple problems include misinterpretations, spelling mistakes, and people who mispronounce words.
