The language is Creative:
Creativity is a highly valued quality today. Everyone wants to be creative.
Creative people are considered intelligent. Our language should also be
creative. In the past, people tried to speak as correctly as possible. Today, on the other hand, they
try to speak as creatively as possible. Advertising and new media
Communication is an example of this. They teach how one can play with language.
Over the last 50 years, interest in creativity has only increased without
Cesar. Even the research has paid special attention to this phenomenon.
Psychologists, educators, and philosophers research the creative processes. Creativity is
defined as the ability to create new things. Therefore, a creative language is
that capable of producing new linguistic forms, which can be both words as well as
grammatical structures. By studying a creative language, linguists can come to
to know how languages change. Not all individuals understand the
new linguistic elements. To assess linguistic creativity, it is necessary

language. And also, one must have knowledge about the world in which they live.
speakers. Only in this way can one understand what they want to say. Youth slang can
serve as an example to explain this. Children and young people are inventing
continuously new terms. Often, adults do not understand such words. There are
even specific dictionaries that clarify the lexicon of the youth language. But that usually

hypotheses, defended by different authors. One of the approaches is from the point
biological, supported by Lennenberg, in which language is acquired just as it is

There are other hypotheses, such as the behaviorist one, which argues that the acquisition of
language comes totally from experience. It is mainly defended by
Skinner and it is a process that consists of the imitation of adult speech, the
association of words, objects, situations... that lead to learning. This
process can be carried out thanks to a stimulus, and one is rewarded in a
correct learning or punished in case otherwise.
On the other hand, there is the innatist theory, which is in line with selection.

the evolution and has been maintained for being an advantageous capability.
We will focus on another hypothesis, which argues that in the acquisition
the language involves two parts; one of an innate nature, and the other based on
the experience. This hypothesis is based on Chomsky's theories about the
Universal Grammar, and studies on the evolution of language in children,
that demonstrate that experience also plays a part in this acquisition.
The Language Organizes:
The language is organized by the combination at different levels of a series
of elements. Each level has units, and each one of greater complexity.
Sounds > words > statements > texts
Sounds are the smallest units of language, without meaning.
Words are groupings of sounds with meaning.
Statements are sets of words that allow us to express ideas.
The texts are a set of statements that form a complete message.
The tongue is the organ of taste, it is covered by more than ten thousand small papillae that

to perceive a certain taste. The groups of taste buds are located differently depending on
the taste they recognize: sweet and salty are at the front of the tongue; sour
to the sides and the bitter, at the back. In this way, the salty and the sweet are perceived.

The language belongs to everyone:
The true owners of the language are not the academics or the
writers, but those who speak it

When we name three languages like Latin, Spanish, and English,
we are talking about three distinct moments in the history of humanity, it is
true, but the three share similarities because in their time they were each
a dominant language, the language of the empire.

Language:
Language is the system through which man or animals communicate.
their ideas and feelings, whether through speech, writing, or other signs
conventional, being able to use all the senses to communicate.
General Concepts:
The differences between language, tongue, and speech are very important when it comes to delving into
in the study of language and linguistics. We are going to try to give some basic definitions
that allow us to distinguish one concept from another.
We can understand language as the ability to establish communication.
through signs, whether oral or written. In this way, language presents many
distinct manifestations in the various communities that exist on our planet. These
manifestations are what we know as tongues or languages, such as Spanish, English, the
French or German. It would not be correct to speak, therefore, of 'Spanish language' or of
French language. It is important to know how to use the terms with the precision they deserve.
On the other hand, language is, as we have said, a system of signs that speakers
they learn and retain in their memory. It is a code, a code that every speaker knows, and
that he uses whenever he needs it (which is often). This code is very
important for the normal development of communication between people, as the fact
that all speakers of a language know it is what allows them to be able to
communicate with each other.
And so, what is speech? It is the embodiment of the above, the recreation of that model.
that the entire linguistic community knows. It is a singular act, by which a person,
individually and voluntarily, conveys a specific message, choosing the code for it, the
signs and the rules that he needs. In other words, it is the act by which the speaker, already
whether through phonation (sound emission) or writing, use the language to
establish an act of communication.
Between language and speech, a kind of intermediate layer is established that linguists
they understand as a standard. The standard is what prevents us from using certain linguistic forms
which, adhering to the logic of the language, could be correct. It happens when a child
I said andé, instead of anduve, just like I would say jugué, miré or canté. This kind of
standards have a historical origin and, when considered in this way, do not constitute any irregularity.
The norm imposes deviations in certain aspects of the language that we all accept, but
the speaker doesn't need to know them at first, and that is why it is so common that, among
those who are learning, make these kinds of mistakes.
LINGUISTIC CODE: when we use language to convey what we desire,
we are establishing a linguistic communication. That is, a communication based on the
language, whether it is, and it can be, in written or oral form.
The linguistic code is the set of units of any language that is combined accordingly.
with certain rules and allows the development of messages. The various human communities
of the world have organized their own languages using articulated sounds that are
they associate with different meanings.
The sender and the receiver must use the same code for the communication to be
possible. Although all the other elements of the communicative circuit work
adequately, communication will not succeed if the sender and receiver do not share
NON-LINGUISTIC CODES: are those codes that do not require language.
they require a specific language to be able to convey a message.
For these codes to be useful, both the sender and the receiver must know their
meanings, but one does not have to know how to read or write. They are due to these codes, like it or not

gestural and auditory linguistic code.
For example, the visual code:
It is transmitted through sight. To capture the message, the receiver must see the signal that the
the sender sends it. We should not confuse seeing with reading.
Regarding the relationship with the written code, it also needs to be considered; but that is not enough,
because you must know how to read and understand the language to grasp the message. In contrast,
When we communicate with non-linguistic visual code, it is enough just to see.
PEIRCE:
Triadic sign model
Her theory can account for any system of signs,
linguistic as non-linguistic.
Triadic relationship: 2 levels:
Faneroscopy: existing ideas in the mind of man.
Establishes the logical relationships of the sign: governs the functions
of the sign.
A sign is something that stands in place of something for someone in
its components but by the nature of the relationship of the three
parts
Any fact present before the mind. Ideas: Different
categories
Primordiality: order of the potential, what can become in
a future, order of feelings and emotions.
Secondness: Existing fact, real, empirical fact.
Tercierity: law, habit, custom.
Model of sign:
Representamen: That which I come into contact with. Belongs to the
order of material qualities (similar to the signifier of
Saussure). It is something that is in place of something, it replaces something. It is
an idea.
Object: that to which the referent is directed. Something of which
The sign tries to account for. It is existing.
Immediate: within the sign
Dynamic: Out of the sign
Interpreter: median between the representamen and the object. It is not a
Subject, change the interpretant, change the object. Its function is
propose an object for representation.
Immediate: contrary to the object, which is valid for any
semiosis. E.g.: fire
Dynamic: intervenes in a specific context of
interpretation. It faces the
fire word that you call the firefighters or plunder
cigarettes. There are several
possibilities, but one is the valid one. The effective act.
Final logic: it would be for Peirce that which makes possible that
sense stabilizes in a
point of the semiotic process. It is the interpretant to which
we should arrive through the
So:
Every sign always refers to another sign.
Everything that is in our thoughts are SIGNS, for
so much every sign/thought
it is directed towards another sign/thought.
They translate each other.
All knowledge comes from another.
Who interprets is not the subject but the knowledge and the
signs that internalize those
subjects.
The subject is a support of signs, they read and interpret.
The representamen is within one of the possibilities of the
object.
The interpretant is what establishes reality.
Reality is a significant construction.
Second trichotomy:
Relationship of the sign with the object.
Icon: order of precedence. The icon denotes its object according to
certain characters, whether or not that object exists. It is characterized
with its object, they are similar. The icon can exist, whether it exists or not.
object.
There are 3 types of icons: image, schematic, and metaphor.
Index: maintains a continuous relationship with its object. It is
of existence. It is contaminated by its object. It calls the
attention in a blind manner to its object. If the object does not exist
there is no index. It is not necessary to have an interpreter for it to be
an initial relationship is manifested. It does not imply a third party, e.g.:
smoke, fire index.
Symbol: it is a sign that refers to the object it denotes in
they operate in such a way that they are the cause of the symbol
interpreted as referred to that object.
It is a general type or law. There must be an existing instance of
those that the symbol denotes.
Third trichotomy:
Rema: it is a sign that, for its interpreter, is a sign of
qualitative possibility, represents any kind of its object,
can provide information.
Sign indicating: sign that for its interpreter is a sign of
real existence.
Dicisigno: it involves as part of it a theme to describe the
fact that is interpreted that the index is essential for him, but not
it constitutes.
Ten classes of signs
According to Peirce, these three trichotomies result in the division
of the signs in ten classes, which had previously been
numbered.
The affinities of the ten classes can be demonstrated by
thedistributionof their designations in the included triangular frame
continuation, which has thick stroke separations between the squares
adjacent assigned to class that are similar in only one aspect. All
the other adjacent squares correspond to similar classes in two
aspects. Non-adjacent squares belong to similar classes only
in one respect, with the caveat that the three squares of the vertices of the
triangles belong to classes that differ in the three aspects, that is
totally, from the classes to which the squares on the side were assigned
opposite of the triangle. The designations that are not in italics are
superfluous (p. 37)
