Relating to Language and Identity

February 5, 2009

Bakthin’s quote about language existing in one’s mouth before they say it, means that language is already a bigger part of people.  People’s language is greatly influenced by culture especially  with other people that they associate with.  I would not have learned the english language with out my family talking constantly.  As for my language development, I have been greatly influenced by education, media, and friends and family.  Education has help through increasing my dictionary, helping me express my ideas through writing, and helping my reading comprehension.  Media greatly influences our language because it completely surrounds us.  I’ve been influenced by family and friends because I spend much of my time with them.
