human is the only species of organism with verbal language, and varies with location and races, but human have most conflict and complex in understanding each other...
maybe this indicates that language doesn't really help in connecting people..
in our syllabus of study, we learn that making bahasa malaysia our national language is to 'memupuk perpaduan antara kaum', and from the very beginning before our independent day till now, the language class had been implemented in the syllabus for almost 50 years, and the result shows that, 'perpaduan' of races in malaysia just really do not improve much, ~
again, do language actually help in connecting?
working for almost 2 weeks now, in between malays, nepal, bangladesh, china and XX(unknown places), ofcuz also locals, in the workplace, the national political issues do not have any effects, and the language plays small role.
we barely understand each other, the communication is build basically on 'simple vocab'(eg: OK? CAN? CANNOT? WHY? HOW? ), even talking to local malay, seriously, i don't really get them either,
but to say, i feel this simple way of communication link people much better than using fantastic bombastic pretty literature words or sentences,
i see local chinese speaking of language he barely understand and fool around with nepal worker, i bet the nepal worker don't understand at all, but they can tease and play together,
i see the canteen aunty shouting shouting the worker to line up, paying the accurate amount, stop pushing, take the food nicely in pure BM, and i truely believe that those worker understand none word from the sentences~
communication doesn't lies just on language, is people we are, we same species...
dog dont have to learn dog language to make all dog species understand them, just like any other animals, why human can't?
use feeling, observation(see), listen(the tone), the situation to understand each other.
language suppose to help us understand each other, why make it an obstacles on people bond? sometimes we are confuse with things we observe, or we simply don't see the point, and the language will be very helpful in understanding, but then this is the time we chose keep silent...
(shy? don't feel like speaking it out?)
