preceive with language --------response

In challenging Theories of Knowing , Hamlet quota Mikhail Bakhtin' s saying "without the word, there is no world". In general, I agree with him. Word is the most important way to communicate and communication is the crucial thing in cognizing and developing society. As a child, I had no idea of the world. It was the people around me that taught me the living skills, what the outside world is and all stuff I need to know in order to survive in the world by using words. As I grew up, I also use language to communicate with other people to figure out something i did not know and to express myself to other people. Just the same as other people, I use words in my everyday life--I use it to chat, to learn, to make friends and so on. I can not image how my world will be without the word. In this case, I can say it is word that play the most important role in my perceiving the world. On the other hand, latter, Hamlet writes someone think just speaking and writing are words. However, in my point of view, all things that can communicate with other can named "word", such as body language. Dumb people can also perceive the outside world, they can use body language. Without speaking, they can create their own worlds as well.
