Definitions

The word "language" has two basic meanings: language as a general concept, and "a language" (a specific linguistic system, e.g. "French"). Languages other than English often have two separate words for these distinct concepts. French for example uses the word langage for language as a concept and langue as the specific instance of language.[2]

When speaking of language as a general concept, several different definitions can be used that stress different aspects of the phenomenon.[3]
