Language is a means of expressing opinions and ideas whether written or oral. It is a way to communicate ideas and exchange information by arranging words and producing useful sentences. "Language is a tool for communication" .

The language takes two forms, which are verbal and written. Oral language is characterized by two elements: the speaker and the listener. The speaker needs to use facial expressions, animations, body language, and eye contact to convey the idea clearly to the listener. The written language requires punctuation marks that give the reader information about the sentence, for example the end of the sentence, the question, etc.
