1. The phenomenon of human symbolic communication, including speech, writing, and sign language. In face-to-face interaction, language is arguably inseparable from nonverbal communication, often referred to as body language. Language as a field of study is termed linguistics. Human language is a conventional system based on the use of words according to a complex system of rules. Linguists regard the faculty of language (sometimes referred to with the French term langage) as a defining feature of the human species: other animals are restricted to a particular set of predefined messages. Language is central to human experience, and in constructionism is seen as constitutive of social reality and identity. Human language has specific design features and functions (see linguistic functions). Whereas in behaviourism language is seen as learned rather than innate, following Chomsky, most linguists argue that we are born with a knowledge of basic language structures: see also deep structure.
