It is made up by the use of language and words

(LANGUAGE ESSENTIAL IN THE SOCIETY)

“Language is the armory of the human mind, and at once contains the trophies of its past and the weapons of its future conquests”

This picture displays the current Prime Minister of Malaysia, reiterating the importance of English in the country of Malaysia not for the first time. Malaysia is a malay language orientated country since long ago ,however, Datuk Seri Najib Razak does not allow malaysians to rest on their laurels just relying on the malay language . The reason for this is because the government in Malaysia knows and acknowledges the importance of acquiring another language.A recent article that shows clearly that Datuk Seri Najib Razak has not forgotten the dominance of english specifically in the country.

"We still uphold the same objectives as we realise how important it is to have a good command of the (English) language," Datuk Seri Najib Razak told newsmen after chairing the Small and Medium Industries Development Corporation meeting at the Prime Minister's Department.
Moreover, Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin supported Datuk Seri Najib Razak's stand that english is important even in a malay orientated country. "I understand that it is important for our children to be proficient in English to meet the needs of the job market, and I do believe that the new approach that we are taking in terms of teaching English would put us in a better position,"was what he stated in a recent speech.

In support to the two prominent figures stated earlier , the wife of Datuk Seri Najib Razak , Datin Seri Rosmah has proven to the nation that what her husband believed in was not just a lie. She told the press that she encouraged her children to pick up other languages so that they would be well and brilliantly equipped globally.

"My son, Mohd Norashman, is learning Mandarin and my daughter, Nooryana Najwa is learning Arabic in the university"

Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor

(Benefits of verbal communication)

1. people have a clear idea of your stand





this video demonstrates President Barack Obama verbally communicating , hence, make known to the audience on his stand.

2. people know your displeasure or pleasure on a certain issue


Recently, Kanye West verbally insulted Taylor Swift ( the winner of the best video in the VMA). He went up the stage and snatched the microphone and said something to the audience. Well, this shows his clear displeasure with Taylor Swift's success that night.

No doubt that verbal communication has pro and cons,however, i support the idea of verbal communication because i feel that it would be more direct in the communication process.

For instance, if a friend is unhappy with me but does not verbally question my acts , I would never get the chance to resolve the problem.



This video demonstrates Kanye West apologizing to Taylor Swift on live television verbally.Although some may argue that verbal communication has flaws, nobody can deny that the only true sincere way to make up for what has went wrong can only be done verbally. face to face communication cannot take place if there isnt any verbal commuication.


In a nutshell, I feel that everyone should equipt themselves with a good command of languages in order to construct a good , sensual and well-mannered verbal conversation or debate.
