A. Background of
the Research
A language is considered to be
a system of communicating with other people
using sounds, symbols and words in
expressing a meaning, idea or thought. This
language can be used in many forms,
primarily through oral and written communications as well as
using expressions through body language.
Language may refer either to the specifically human capacity
for acquiring and using complex systems of communication, or to a specific
instance of such a system of complex communication.
According to Brown, (2007:384),
language is a systematic means of communicating
ideas or feelings by the use of
conventionalized signs, sounds, gestures, or marks having understood
meanings.
Language is a complex, specialized
skill, which develops in the child spontaneously,
without conscious effort or formal instruction, is deployed without awareness
of its underlying logic, is qualitatively
the same in every individual???????
