MISUNDERSTANDINGS OF THE COMMUNICATION
Many conflicts of this world are believed to be the result of
misunderstandings. But where better to begin the process of understanding
than in the well springs of communication -- of language, of speech?
Unless we understand what another is saying, how can we approach even
the fringes of consensus? Even where people speak the same language,
grave difficulties of semantics still often arise. How much more than in the
case of people ruled by fears and suspicions of other people who speak an
alien tongue?
Each language has grown out of the deep cultural aspirations of a people.
By understanding the language we begin to understand how they think,
and more significantly how they feel. Out of such understanding will come a greater measure of
mutual respect, and out of this respect greater love, and out of such love, and such love alone, will
come a lasting peace.
There are many occasions in the modern world which provides opportunities for fostering greater
contact with foreigners. In the past, when travel was extremely hazardous and nearly impossible,
people hardly ever heard another language spoken. In this age of jet transport and highly organized
tourism, it is impossible not to hear several languages regularly. Movements of people in search of
employment across the globe, for short and long terms, expose themselves and their families to quite
diverse ethnic groups and cultures. They thus absorb quite naturally at least some of the basic
elements of speech in those countries.
The United Nations and its myriad service organizations have done immeasurable good in bringing
together nations of the world. There are also many "friendship societies" which enable people who
wish to appreciate another culture to do so in a most congenial manner. Foreign missions of most
countries, except perhaps the Chinese and some East European countries hold classes to teach their
language to people of host countries. International schools are also great nurseries of international
friendship.
At the school where my wife teaches, the Overseas Children's School just outside Colombo, children
of about 35 nations attends, and it is always a deeply moving sight to see them on United Nations
Day, or on their big occasions, carrying the flags of their nations. It represents an El Dorado in
microcosm, a brave vision of peace in the future.
My wife recalls that when the US-Libyan confrontation was at its peak, she saw a Libyan diplomat's
daughter walk hand in hand with an American child. They had a language in common. Indeed, unless
we become as little children in the matter of learning one another's language, as children do, we will
not enter the kingdom of a heaven of harmony on earth.
