The Language Bridge --a chain of many body processes...
Body processes are things that the body does internally. In a real sense, we (our conscious selves) are the sum total of all our body processes.
Change any process and we change ourselves, whether we are aware of it or not. Delete all processes and we cease to exist.
Language is an important subset of these body processes.
Modify any of these processes and our language ability changes, for the better or for the worse.
Because the language I must use to discuss language is discursive, I must present it in serial order. But in reality the brain works in parallel form.
Referents are the first event in the language chain to which I would like to draw your attention.
