It is subject to interpretation by our frames of reference. Therefore, the reason we can talk about things to one another and make sense despite our very different frames of reference is because of denotative quality of words. This is what binds us together as a species. The connotative quality of language is what defines us as individually unique. In comparison, other forms of expression are better Considering language s inability to be used in expressing ourselves accurately and precisely, there must be some other form of communication more effective.
Humans possess more than just the language instinct in their communication.
Language may be the biggest thing that sets us apart from others in the animal kingdom but we also possess other expressive instincts similar to those as well, for example, cries of pain. Due to its general insufficiency, as was explained above, we must often resort to other forms of communication to express what is going on inside us. One example of this is the following life-changing experience of mine. It was the beginning of the Spring semester, 1998. Many issues relating to family, school, my job, my future, my social life, the demands made of me by myself and others, were literally weighing me down.
