That is, when the words chosen are the correct ones. The book defines language as the system of words people use when communicating with others. Language basics: Language is arbitrary, language is ambiguous, language is abstract, and language is active. All these classifications of language are to be understood and applied differently with in a presentation. For example, language is arbitrary.
