Jezyk, kultura i historija
Language, culture and globalization

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the relationship between language and culture, the influence of language on cultural development, the question of emergence of language structure in the distant past, the concept of globalization and the extension of linguistic links. An idea is presented about the mass eruption of the volcano Toba on the island of Sumatra about 75,000 BC, since it may have brought about a crisis that finally had an influence on the develop of language and complex cultures in our species. Imagination probably, not only logic, was important in this development. Later in the article a description is given in regard to the tendency on combining human societies in the world, namely "globalisation", and then a summary follows in regard to "international communication", first with a comment on lingua franca (a "business language"). At the end of the article an opinion is mentioned, i.e. that respecting differences in the world is necessary, and that this is also connected to linguistic dimensions. Članok govori o odnosah medžu jezykom i kulturoju, o vplyvu jezyka na razvoj kultury, pitanje o počatkah jezyka v dalekoj historiji, prěgled pojma "globalizacija" i razširjenje jezyčnyh vezov. Članok govori o hipoteze, že jezyk je činitelj do razvoja ljudkoj kultury. Kromě togo piše o ideji, že velika erupcija vulkana Toba na Su-matrě okolo 75.000 pr.Kr. donesla krizu, ktora napokon činila razvoj jezyka našego biologičnogo vida Homo Sapiens i jegovoj vyše kompleksnoj kultury. I pravděpodobno imaginacija i ne toliko logika byla ključnoju do togo razvoja. Članok takože prěgledaje tendenciju vezanja ljudskyh občin v světu, ktora dnes dostala nazvanje "globalizacija" s slědujučim popisanjem "medžunarodnoj komunikacije", prvo s vezom na termin "lingua franca" ("jezyk biznesa"). Na koncu članka jest vizija potrěbnosti respektovanja različnostij v světu, ktore sut povezane i s jezyčnymi dimenzijami.
