Language, said Heidegger, is the house of being, and he may be right, but whatever the case, it is certainly true to call language a house of memory, which is to say a house of oblivion, a house in which things of every sort can be called to mind or allowed to lapse into nothingness.
Language is, in other words, an archive, a word as well as a concept that English borrowed from French, which borrowed it from Latin, which borrowed it from Greek, where it originally referred to the public building that housed records and documents.

The economic loss to the country through so many rural youth dropping out of school before they reach school leaving age, and the linguistic deficiencies of those who succeed in completing only part of their school education, represents a loss to the social and economic well-being of the country.” ― J.
