Discussion Post #3

Language learning is a process of mastering a tool that I can use in everyday life. I have learnt a lot of skill by my own such as Photoshop, Premium Pro. These tools all require tremendous time input and logical study plans. To begin with, in language, one have to appreciate sound, grammar, and meaning in order for proper usage. Likewise, Premium Pro requires users to import video, soundtrack, and editing logic in orde to make a understandable video. By acknowledging all these basis for leanring, one can build their own knowledge by acquiring understanding of each pillar. One thing I realize through studying is the importance of logic, and in this case, structure. Being similar to constructing a building, as long as you are following the right structure, the building can be accepted. 

The diagram reminds me the importance of incorportaing culture elements into my learning plan. In the Sociology portion, it adresses the existence and importance of social context in daily languages. The syntax, on the other hand, serve as a tool for better comprehension of social behaviors. By transcirbing social norms into languages people can undertand, linguistics also addresses the necessity of learning the culture behind the language. I am planning to visit Korea for perceiving the culture there. By travelling, I can undertand syntax better and acknowledge why people use the language certain way may be different from my own culture.
