2. Essay Topic

We  take language for granted, but the ability to communicate is one of the  unique traits of humans.  It can be a force for good or evil.  Language  allows us to have close interpersonal connections with other people. It  can be beautiful and inspirational.  Language can turn ugly, however:  it can drive wedges between people, it can break one’s heart, and it can  bring down a promising career.  Write an essay about the power of  language, beginning with references to at least two of the resources  assigned in the attached document.  Inform your ideas with researched information  from at least three reliable secondary sources that  show how language  is used to shape people or events in our  world.  Your essay should be  1100 – 1300 words (double-spaced, 12 point Times New Roman font), and  submitted in MLA format.
