Since yesterday was the first day of school and Mr.Rajiv came a bit late because he got lost,so It leaves us with half an hour to study for the night ..
In those half an hour left,he doesnt want to start with the syllabus yet,so he ask questions instead,regarding the definition of Language .. What does language mean?? .. It was a great start tho' ..i also want to get to noe his teaching skills..i like the way he ask questions and also letting us speak our mind,right or wrong it doesnt matter.
The way he motivates us gives me my confidence back. For a start like right now,im using english language in my post . Usually i would use mix languages,cause i was so afraid that i would make an error in spelling,grammar or etc,but now it doesn't matter anymore. I will keep on posting in english whether i make a mistake or not. Mr.Rajiv told us that,we have to speak our minds out. He knows we have got a lot to say,but our brain won't let us write or speak in english without translating it first in our head. He wants us to love the language in order to use the language. When it is a part of us,automatically we will use it in our everyday lifes.
Okay back to his questions,first he asked us what is language? Definiton or by action,what does it means and how? ..
He told us that what we were doing with him,responding to his question is a part of the answer too .. So it means, responding,giving feedbacks,using body language are related to language..but still what does it means?
He let us answer his question. He even gave us a few consonants of the word that is related to the definition. Cut the story short .. We guessed that the word related are 'Exchange' .. What do we exchange? When i talk with u,and ur responding to what i said,what does it means?it means that ideas were exchange between us.i told u that and u told me this. So the definition of language is ' exchanging of idea' .. We communicate using a language,whether by using ur sign language,body language or any other language ^^ it does makes sense right? Hehe
