Do people need a common language? and Could emojis be that common language??

Hi Steemit family!

Communication is an indispensable tool for us. I think that if we couldn't communicate with each other, it would be total hell for us. Every kind of technology that comes into our lives is developing every day to provide better communication between people. Through these means of communication, common feelings have begun to emerge among people. Even those forms of language that reflect common feelings have begun to be developed. You all know emojis. Even if we don't know each other or don't understand the languages we speak, we can understand each other with communicate using emojis. As technology evolves and the means of communication grow, People are creating new things in communicating. All of this is happening to make our life even easier.

I'm just not talking for today. Since people existed in this world, they have tried to establish communication tools for themselves and others. Let's look at the pre-history communication tools. The people who live at that time that they wanted to emerge a communicating tool. We will never know exactly what they want to do and what is going on in their minds. But as you read in history lessons or as you can see from documentaries, wall paintings emerged as you see in the picture below. The purpose of communication is to give a message. They wanted to give a message to someone and they reached their goals.

Well, you want to ask that what kind of a similarity with today's communicating tools? The answer is quite simple. The people of that period actually created a common language for the message they wanted to give. Just like today's emojis :) They realized that a common communication tool that could be created for all humanity would make their work easier.

How does it feel to talk in a common language with an alien come from another planet?

I know it would be an interesting question. But I will give an example from a movie. Did you watch arrival? Briefly, I'll talk about the movie, include few spoilers, I'm warning now :) According to movie story, aliens come from another planet and they want to communicate with people. Many scientists are trying to figure out what these alien beings want to say. Interestingly, these alien beings have developed some geometrical shapes for communication and are trying to communicate through these shapes. Yes, the main subject of the movie continues around the story I mentioned. No more spoilers anymore :)

So why did I tell you that? In fact, there is a similar issue here as the people who live at the pre-history history did. Aliens in the movie develop a common language of communication too. In this way, they are trying to share a common feeling or idea with people they do not know at all.

Yes, as we have examined all these examples, we can continue to talk about life today. First of all, I don't argue that the systems developed on this issue are good or bad. What I'm trying to understand and studying is just the way people or other who living in the world behave. Interestingly, we are always looking for common feelings, no matter what time or space.

Now we are waiting for a new future, and one of our greatest needs in this new future is to preserve and strengthen the communication between us. Whatever language or shape it is, we should always work to make life more beautiful and strive to understand each other. In fact, the biggest cause of the wars or conflicts in the world arises because we do not understand or share a common feeling.

One of the reasons I love Steemit most is that I feel that there is a common feeling intensity on this platform and I think we can understand each other better. Thank you for reading it without bored :)

@flamingirl, check out Esperanto! It was an auxiliary language created to remove bias when people are communicating! Easy to learn (logical framework) and is already spoken by pockets of people all over the globe.

@flamingirl, This blog lead towards the effective point. Communication in symbol is Ancient Form now just channel is changed and we moved on Technological Platforms. The most important aspect is, Technology should not take away the natural emotions of people. Stay blessed.

I think English is going to be the common language through the help of internet.
