mydiinterlanguage spreading inside & around us ...



HOE
dan ook:
er is altijd 'n 'happy ending'!
Alle mydiverhaaltjes zijn eenmaal onderdeel van
dit geheel dat ver voor ons is begonnen & lang na ons zal eindigen?
't Enige middel dat we ter beschikking hebben is taal: communicatie,
contact via mimiek, gebaren, talen & tekens die kunnen overbrengen
wat er in ons omgaat, waar we mee bezig zijn & wat we ervan vinden ~
eindeloze reeksen gevoelens, gedachten, daden & bewegingen
& ontdekkingen in onze 'eigen' virtuele
cyberspeciale ruimtes die ons
ter beschikking
staan.

Geen wonder
dat Yochanan, de vierde evangelist,
dichtte: in 't begin was 't woord g d ~ that's what "IT"
is ~ alles wat we kennen hebben we door onze uitdrukkingen,
gewaarwordingen, gebaren & geluiden laten ontstaan ~ 't bewustzijn
van andere planten & dieren ging daaraan vooraf ~
zij hebben {OOK} hun
eigen taal
...

Anyway,
'interlanguage' is already spreading
inside & all around us with rapidity and, while it spreads,
crowds out the world's spoken vernaculars! What we intitiated in the sixties of this past century
comes 'of age' fifty years later, at least so it seems?
All our mydistories by language have carried us
thus far afield, through domains of history,
religion, philosophy, physical science,
anthropology, sociology
& geography
...

We have,
every now and then
also witnessed partly & in detail
the birth & growth of human systems of our
human communiscation, chief among which is language.
The nature of speech & writing are thus no longer closed books to us anymore.
The fundamental purpose & function of speech has become a bit clearer now & we have seen
what language & languages consist of while we observed the intimate connections of tales in several languages with ALL basic human activities. We now know enough, I hope,
about the locations, affiliations, cultural & economic importance
of the world's chief tongues to be able to discuss them
intelligently: even their appearances
& structures are no longer
huge mysteries for us
to blame gods
& devils?!

The number of existing languages
& the difficulty of mastering even a single one
beside our 'own' have been brought into sharp focus by certain mydistories, on & off?
The problems of language are not only something for the 'pedagogues' alone to worry about anymore! They concern wach & every one of us, if not in connection with foreign tongues
with which we may or may not {?} at any tine be thrown in contact,
then at least in conjunction with our own mother tongue
over which none of us exercises
absolute mastery.

The story
of language, {religion/philosophy/psychology},
is just another phase, perhaps the most important,
certainly the most enlightening,
of the story of mankind: &
dagboekanierschap is niet
v/d kat z'n kut.
