Words are what bring many people together from around the world. If not for spoken or written languages, economies, societies, relationships, and everything else that involves interaction with others would have a difficult, perhaps impossible, time surviving. Each of these different aspects of our lives depend on communication with external intelligence.
But is all language communication? Is all communication language? My answer to both is, "No." If I could choose somewhere in between yes and no, I would. I do think most language is communication and most communication is language. Yes, body language and tone of voice and other non-verbal and non-written elements can be factored into communication, but what good is body language if you don't know what they are saying?
Le français est la langue d'amour. Ma il francese viene da latino. O italiano e o espanhol originaram desta mesma linguagem. Así es con el portugués.
Language and communication have not only the power to unify but also to divide.
