Language is a structured system of communication consisting of vocabulary and grammar. It is not part of the superstructure and develops over many centuries without relation to a specific mode of production. Language benefits all members of a society, not just the ruling class, and has existed since before class society. The vocabulary of living languages is constantly in a state of change as the productive forces develop.[1]
A common language is one of the defining characteristics of a nation.[2] In class societies, all classes of the same nation share one language, although there may be minor differences in vocabulary between classes.[1]
