"Nos comprometemos con el idioma y la comunidad al mismo tiempo"
— Toni Morrison
Simplified Meaning:
When we learn to speak and communicate, we are also connecting with the people around us. For example, when a child starts to talk, they are not just making noises; they are learning how to be part of their family and society. Talking helps us share our thoughts, feelings, and needs with others. In a neighborhood, speaking the same language allows neighbors to understand each other, work together, and build trust. If you move to a new country, learning the local language helps you make friends and feel like you belong. So, by learning how to talk and using language, we are also building and joining communities.
