THE EFFECT OF MOTHER TONGUE AS MEDIUM OF COMMUNICATION

THE EFFECT OF MOTHER TONGUE AS MEDIUM OF COMMUNICATION

 We communicate everyday through the used of unique identities of languages. We understand each other because of our distinct way or style of communication. Of all countries all-over the world, we communicate as one through the used of the universal language which is the English language. But each countries do have there own languages and dialects being used. Because we consider to used the English language in our school and business agendas, we often set aside our own mother tongue or dialect. There should always be an equality among the languages and dialects that we are learning and using through.

 But as we have noticed nowadays, there are still a lots of people who don't know how to speak in English rather they speak in their own mother tongue. A lots of people who are not able to finished their schooling because of poverty and lack of money. Whenever we talk on people especially in ordinary people, there is really a possibility that when we talk with them using English, they will answer us back using their own native dialect or what we called as mother tongue. They will not even understand what we are saying and get confused.

 Even though we learned English language almost all of our school life, we still can't perfectly communicate through it because first and foremost, our own dialect is more used than it. We are surrounded by people everyday who used their own dialect and that is the effect of it.
