"WHAT'S more important, written or oral language?" A very confusing question, isn't it? I really don't know what to choose for they are both significant in our daily living. do i really have to choose only one? can't i just have both for it's really hard for me to search for concrete reasons why writing and not oral language or why oral and not written language.


Practically, both languages can't be separated from each other. they are interconnected as the term says. my explanations are presented for better understanding: first, it's hard to produce a written language without the help of the oral one. it's true that we can produce through our minds for instance the compositions and other academic papers. but the majority is taken from the opinions of other people to make it more reliable i.e., historical notes.


Second, it's unfair to say that oral language can live on its own because of the fact that it already exist without any basis of written works. of course it did because we human beings are born to speak and it is our nature. but at this generation, wherein everything's "hi tech" and everything's only trusted whenever there is a reliable source i.e., research works, written language is very helpful when it comes to that matter. people's intelligence is already based on what they have read and see. that's universal. and what we know, is also what we just speak, of course. as simple as that!


As a whole, there's no such thing as an argumentation between these two things for we need both of them to create better communication!!!
