What if There Were No Words?

What if it Works?

Intro

-------------



Words always have been a part of us. Or has it? True, we need words for expressing, or explaining things. Whether it would be in speech, or whether in writing, we need words.

That's at least for language. There are some things though, that we have no words for. No language for. No description for.

What type of things is that? Let's find out.

1. What we would think it would be like?

Say you had just walked into a perfume shop. So many smells attack you. How would you be able to describe it? 

"Amazing, wonderful, sweet ... supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."

See? Eventually, you'll run out of words. Why is that? Because it's an emotion. It's not really something so tangible. It's not so physical at all.

Emotions don't have words. They don't have a language, and they never will. Words are used to explain something, but emotions are something deeper. 

Something higher. How high? Well, too high for words, that's for sure. We could use metaphors. We could use parables, but we can't actually have an official word for it.

So we already have for some things, like emotions, no words for. Maybe that's why emjie's were invented. So we could use signs when there are no other words. 

So what if there were no words at all. How would that turn out?

2. What it would be like?

Up until words were made up, people had been using signs, and images for communicating. Only later on, did we finally start using codes to communicate. In other words languages

If there were no words at all, we would most likely just resort to what our ancestors did before us. That wouldn't be the best way to run the world. What if somebody misunderstands you? 


The world would then have to make official signs, that everybody could use so we could understand people better. Maybe silent language would be just that, or maybe it would be something else. Then again, everybody has their own opinions, and some people might want to make their own signs, making different languages. Just in signs, and images. The world is sort of like that. Some counties have their own type of silent language.

So would the world resort to signs and images if there were no words, or would it be something else? Let us know what you think.
