What is the differences between A Language and Language?

Hi_there_Carl · #2 (**permalink**) 19-Nov-2007, 15:29

a language implies a single language while language without the article implies all languages or language in a generic sense.

Example: Learning a language is difficult. This sentence implies that a single language is being learned.

Now let's modify our example: Learning language is difficult. This sentence implies that, in general, learning any language is difficult.

OK?
