Language screen


by cho su bin (10-A3)

When I went to France last winter vacation, I met a little French boy whose name was Alaxis in T.G.V. At first, I thought I could communication with that guy although his and my language are different. However,it was so hard to understand what he was doing, think we and saying to me.

As in this experience, I think there are Language Screens. In the world, there are so many kinds of languages like Korean, English, French, Italian, Germany, Chinese etc and ,according to these languages, there are many different sorts of cultures. Even near Korean and China have different languages and cultures. Let's suppose I go to the Thailand. When I see a Thai baby, I will stroke the baby's head becase he is so cute. However, they will keep apart from me and there baby bacause that was a bad meaning in the Thai. If I can talk to them, it means cute in my country, they can get aling with me but I can't explain that situation, they will hate me. In this manner in this world, they are many situations people feel language screen.

But I think language screen is not bad. When we feel language screens, first, that will make us embarrassed. But later, we could have curiousity about that countries' language and we can have chances to learn the language, maybe. It can be also helpful to us.
