The language of emotions

That's what I said to the music, as I've heard recently. Very good definition, and correct. In fact, sometimes a certain musical passage reflects and captures a concrete emotion within us, whether it be euphoria, sadness, or rage...
Because it has often happened to me at least, to hear a song or part of a song that makes me a chicken granule, and to feel that this is exactly what I wanted to express with words but could not express. I mean, I understand and feel what that melody means, and if I had to explain that emotion to anyone, I'd probably use that music instead of trying it verbally.


And if we assume that music is the language of emotions, we should not jump too far to draw another conclusion, to bring it to our small world of dialects. Honatx: our speech, our communication, maybe a little music would be welcome.
Perhaps also in the literal sense; that is, adding musical melodies in the usual way in our diverse communication actions.
But above all, in another sense: adding musicality to our comments. Not so much in terms of ideas and content, but when we select words, and create and link word strings, we might look for a more musical, more “exciting” language. Just looking for the beautiful? No, of course not. With the purpose of arousing emotions. If it is true that emotions have such an influence on our daily decisions, as well as on our linguistic decisions, we will have to try to play that obstacle, among other things, and take advantage of the magic and strength that the musicality of words itself has.


Without detracting from ideas and contents, of course, because beautiful words that do not speak deus can hardly provoke emotions that have substance and duration.


Communication and discourse are not magic formulas that will make all our goals and tasks available to us without sweating, but they will surely help us and even be indispensable. Well, it will be more effective a discourse with a certain kind of music –not always and necessarily to sweeten the ears– than a dry and silly discourse.

The silogism of the carpentry
