At class we presented a group debate. The motion of the debate was "Humans are born with an ability to create language" vs. "Language is a learnt construct like the rules governing a sport".
My group was against the motion the second motion. I worked with my classmates Ugarte and Macchiavello. Both sides of the debate had good points and strong arguments, though we had the motion that was easier to defend as we saw it in class and we studied Saussure's theroy of language. It a pretty hard debate but our arguments were more solid as we had theories supporting us not as the other motion, that defended the motion with assumptions.
I really liked to have a debate because, not as a test, we have to use english the best way we could to clearly express what we think and make the arguments and examples more solid.
