If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart”. yjiang77 https://padlet.com/yjiang77/teho6jjxzclykxrs/wish/1252316014 What a person can understand is the meaning of the language itself, but what can really enter a person's heart is the culture and history behind the language. Soli may not have a written form, but it embodies the history and civilization development process behind zambia. These cultural symbols cannot be replaced by other languages. So language is not only a tool for communication, but also a manifestation of culture.]]> 2021-03-01 10:10:10 UTC https://padlet.com/yjiang77/teho6jjxzclykxrs/wish/1252316014 Q2: https://padlet.com/yjiang77/teho6jjxzclykxrs/wish/1252329064 English: official language, good job
