Category: Language and Culture
Hey, I was just thinking about how it seems very uncommon for two people who don't speak the same language to communicate and be friends. I mean, think about all of the people in the world, and how some of us feel limited to the people who speak the same languages as we do, let alone people with the same interests. Just wondering what your thoughts are on this, and how we can change it.
my thorts are that evereryone should treat everyone the same and it dosn't matter who you talk to. anything is better than nothing
I agree with that... It's hard to talk to people who don't speak the same language as you though, I'm not saying it's impossible, it's just kind of thought provoaking.
i agree with that also. it just takes time to understand and of course if they speak a bit of english then that helps
It's still kind of hard for two people of different languages to communicate which sucks.
sited people can read body langauge, we can't that puts us at a bit of a disadvantage when trying to communicate with someone who doesn't speak our the same language,
instead of different language, that one another have, another problems must be consider is the different background, and every different culture. such as the eastern and the western, the islamic and the christian, the chinese and japanese, etc. the way to communicate is accept the different culture, and balance up between one another.
I agree with all of u. It might be difficult for a blind person to freely interact with a sighted one, let alone for two people of a different background. It often resurfaces during communication between two people from different English-speaking countries. When I attended Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama, where participants came from both Australia and the US, people were joking at how different the accents and ways of speaking were.

That's true too. Dialects can be almost as hard to understand as different languages.
