- We'll soon be lost for words
«If language is a mirror for the society in which we live, no image could be reflected back more sharply than the dominance of consumerism in our culture. We have become a nation of consumers. We no longer watch television news, we 'consume it'. The country itself is routinely called 'UK plc', as though that's all we are and a British education minister has referred to our universities as 'UK Knowledge plc', which needs to keep up its 'market share'.»

- Nicaraguan Sign Language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
«Nicaraguan Sign Language (or ISN, Idioma de Señas de Nicaragua or Idioma de Signos Nicaragüense) is a signed language spontaneously developed by deaf children in a number of schools in western Nicaragua in the 1970s and 1980s. It is of particular interest to linguists because it offers a unique opportunity to study the 'birth' of a new language.»
