Language is one of mankind’s most

powerful tools. The spoken word is

the basic building block for effective

communication and a foundation

stone for civilization. Its strength lies

in its ability to convey one’s accu­

mulated knowledge to another. Its

weakness lies in man’s inability to

use it properly.

Although communication has

progressed far beyond simple spoken

language, the word is still the com­

mon denominator in whatever form

of expression we choose to use. Re­

alizing that the power of a word is

often manifest by how it is spoken

and its meaning interpreted by when

it is uttered, it is our responsibility to

learn what to say, when to say it, and

how to say it.
