Understanding the language of other people is essential to understanding the culture of that people. It is hard to understand the beliefs, attitudes, values, and world view of a people without understanding their language and the nuances of how that language is used. Imagine you see people go by a certain rock and seemingly walk out of their way to avoid it. Suppose they believe an evil spirit resides there. How could you possibly know that without being able to ask and understand their answer? All languages have definite patterns in the sounds their speakers use, in how those sounds are combined to form symbols, and how those symbols are organized into meaningful sentences. When people encounter an unfamiliar language for the first time, they are often confused and disoriented, but after becoming familiar with the language, they eventually discover its’ rules and how the various parts are interrelated.
