INTRODUCTION
|
|
| A less well understood purpose of language itself is as a means for learning. The prime purpose of language as a means of communicating thoughts via words implies that words themselves are used to represent certain concepts as well as objects. | ||
| The words "life",
"love" and "death" are excellent examples of words that
have certain meanings.In this way, the very structure of the language provides
a framework for idea association and therefore learning. |
||
| A logically structured language can
greatly assist or hinder learning: (eg one word = one meaning, similar sounding, or looking words have similar meanings). |
