Re: [xmca] Language as the link between emotions and culture.

[Joseph Gilbert <joeg4us@roadrunner.com>]

I think maybe I understand what you are saying here.   I see that we  
are built on the past. Our dna is a further development of previous  
species' dna. A house is built on a foundation. Language is built on  
vocal sounds. If it weren't for the existence of the ability to  
vocalize, we would not be able to verbalize. The functions of  
vocalization continue on when vocal sounds are used verbally and it  
that function as vocalization that gives verbalization its depth and  
impact.
