Lesson 3
1.
It
is
often
said
that
provided
we
are
not
of
the
unfortunate
minority
of
people
who
have
pathological
language
defects,
our
language
mechanism
automatically
equips us to say anything we need to
say.
__________________________________
People
often
say
that
if
we
are
not
among
the
few
unlucky
people
whose
speech
ability
has
been
damaged
(or:
influenced)
by
a
physical
disease,
our
inborn language capacity will enable us
to
say
anything
we
need
to
say
without
difficulty.
2.
What it does
mean is that if my job or
my
hobby
entailed
a
knowledge
of
these
activities,
my
language
would
world rise to the occasion.

anything that I need
to
say
on

or
would
let
me
successfully
cope
with
any
language situation.
3.
But the very
fact that this word is mainly
confined
to
technical
health-authority
usage
(despite
our
recognition
of
its
usefulness
and
of
our
need
for
such
a
word
)
is
an
interesting
indication
of
the
way
we
are
very
largely
the
helpless
prisoners
of
the
language
in
general
use
around us.
_________________________________
But just because of the
fact that this word
is
mainly
used
by
officials
in
the
public
health
department
of
the
government
(
even if we all agree that this word is very
useful and we need this word in our
daily
2
expression ) , it interestingly
indicates how
we
become
helpless
to
such
an
extent
when we
deal with general use of language
in
our daily lives.
4.
Even
where
there
would
be
widespread
agreement
that
there
is
a
linguistic
deficiency,
very
few
communities
in
the
world
seem
to
have
settled
the
means
whereby remedies can be agreed upon and
adopted.

Even
in
the
place
in
which
all
the
people
agree
that
there
exists
a
linguistic
deficiency
in
the
language,
very
few
communities seem to have found the way
to
effectively
solve
the
problem
by
adopting some well-
accepted solutions
5.
Can we not begin to
imagine how near to
3
despair
these
people
must
come
who
can
almost
never
find
the
right
word
they
are
hunting for?

We
certainly
can
begin
to
suppose
that
how
near these people must get to despair
when
they
almost
fail
to
find
the
right
word
they are looking for.
