Answer to Question #186469 in English for Pretty Msimango

Question

How does language signify attitude & world view?

Answer 1

Language binds us to our culture. Language determines how the world describes your personality because your language tells the speaker or listener more about you. Attitude is the way you feel or think about something or somebody. The world sees you in different ways, not the same as the way you see yourself. For example, depending on the language that you speak, people will see you differently. The way we view the world is determined by how we describe our past experiences using language. For example, words used to describe women in society show the position women are given compared to men.
