Identity vs. Language


        I think identity is being expressed by language, and it's something that stand out to be its own. Let's say there's a group of what, chimpanzees, they are able to communicate to one another through gestures and noises, that no humans can understand perfectly. The relationship between literacy and identity has a lot to do with culture, I think that certain cultures are able to identify best within their own culture.  Neither identity nor language use, is a fixed notion; both are dynamic, depending upon time and place, and other factors.
