Language has rules but we break them all the time
Every language has its own rules that form the basis for that language, but we break them all the time. I find it interesting that the rules for a language arent broken a lot of the time when we are writing formal essays or letters at school. Rules are broken when freedom is allowed and we have the most freedom when we're speaking. language has been constantly changing as generations go on. Shakespeare broke the rules of the english language and many years later the rules of language were broken through slang. Now, we break rules almost every time we talk to each other and this can be linked to our previous blog about how language creates ideas. when language creates ideas, some of the ideas created might need to break the rules of the language. i think that everyone who is able to speak, breaks the rule of the language they are speaking almost every time and even though there are rules for that language, we break them as we create new ideas that evolve the language.
