Uniting the world can not be made by language. [...]

Whoa Black Eagle, that's so true. Everything you said. May I ask are you a teacher or specialized in another way in pedagogy or something?  :)

I also agree with all the characters with speaking languages and flaws within them. They make it interesting. It's us with all differences and shades of cultures we can hear really... It was a short while ago I read about an investigation of some nearly extinct far eastern languages and how their speakers nowadays have not a single word for owning or buying... That's unbelievable, what you could hear there are the earlier generations with tens of different words for things like sharing, giving, loaning... That's unbelievable.
Hi Rusco..What's up man? No,I have no any teaching skills or pedagogy:)Sorry for taking your thread to a different way.It's true that the tongues change by generations.Not the same example but my inheritage comes from Circassian/Cherkess family and after 1864 genocide many have to move to the mountain villages and country sides mostly.After those elder generations have gone,we have no young people to speak the language anymore.It's sad I think.
