Napagkasunduan
Arbitrariness

Creativity
Productivity
Language is passed from one gen to another
not biologically but thru teaching and learning
Cultural Transmission
The sounds used in language are meaningfully distinct. Each sound is treated as a discrete unit, and the occurrence of one sound instead of the other leads to a misuse of language. For example, /p/ and /b/ sounds in a sentence like: <can I park here= the use of the sound /b/ instead of /p/ is a wrong use of language.
Discreteness
Structure. Language is structurally organized into two abstract levels. The discrete forms combined in different ways give different meaningful units. That is, at one level, we have distinct sounds and at the other level we have distinct meanings. For example, the sounds /a/, /e/, /t/ none of these discrete forms has any intrinsic meaning. When we produce those sounds in different combinations, as in ate, eat, tea we have different meaningful units.
