One's culture is too deeply linked with one's language. One's language is the barometer of one's culture. If one knows one's language well, then one can know one's own culture well. One can never reach into the sea of eternal understanding through somebod y else's mother tongue. By throwing a shadow over ones own mother tongue one can never expose one's true culture. One's mother tongue is like a soul of one's body. Without a soul the body is dead and without a language one's culture is dead.
