Language is the most important thing that we need. If wedon't know any language no one can speak and no one can hear. This is Language Which gives us Identity.

Language is the most important thing which gives us identity. Which helps us in every way, but no problem weather they speak Chinese Urdu whatever but they themselves achieve a culture and language. It is language which solves our every problem if language was not there we might not be able to solve those problems that we are having. Thanks. Also without language our culture would be the same and there won't be much difference and the there will no longer be a beauty of learning if there isn't nothing else to learn about in this world because language is how we communicate with each other and is how god helped a long ago slave. Long ago a man was constructing a palace for his dreadful king when they thought they were almost done the greedy king wanted it to be bigger. So they ran away when the king saw them he ordered them to stop, but they didn't listen then when they were trapped by the guards all the king had to do is tell his man to slay them and they were dead. But then write out of no where everyone starts talking different languages and the guards didn't know what to do with them so they couldn't kill them and the prisoner escaped along with the rest of the slaves god made different language and saved many life's

There are books devoted to this subject, which is deep and wide. We can only skim the surface here, and point out one or two of the more spectacular half-submerged logs of lore. There is the fact that English has the unique wealth of two word hordes and two grammatical structures, being something of a fusion of the Germanic Old English and the Romance Norman French. From the Norman Conquest of 1066 on, English literature changed direction and so today English speakers who have never heard of Beowulf, the great hero of Old English literature, know all about King Arthur, the Welsh hero of Mediaeval French literature.

Frenchified English is still considered higher and more refined, compared to the homelier and earthier Anglo-Saxon English, both in words and grammar. An English cow or sheep in the field becomes a French beef or mutton in the kitchen. And "God's House" doesn't have the necessary gravitas that "the House of God" has.

An interesting and important quirk in the history of English speaking culture is that its Anglic dialect, which obviously gave its name to the language, has an uninterrupted literary history that does indeed go all the way back to Beowulf, whereas the Saxon dialect spoken now didn't even exist at the time that Beowulf was composed. But, and this is huge, that Saxon form is now called Standard English, and its speakers ( the English) have the temerity to claim that the far older Anglic dialect, now called Scots, is an inferior debasement and a sloppy source of shame. This was and is a political feature of immense effect on the history and culture of Britain.

In America, the English used by African slaves became the major influence on the dialects of the South. In families well-off enough to own slaves, children learned their speech from their mammies, not their mamas, and the African substrate informs Southern speech, which is becoming basic American speech (Pop Music is invariably sung southern), which is again to say the speech of the world.

English right now is at the center of world culture and history. In the last Century, it was French, and before that Spanish and Portuguese, which took over from Latin and the earlier Greek as the great international idioms of western thought. Get into this deeply by reading Empires of the Word, by Nicholas Ostler

People learn no how speak and axe question like she. "How culture influence language" is not correct grammatical English. The person who asked it may possibly be from a culture where a different language is spoken and this follows the rules of whatever language that is. Or it might just be broken English.
