How misleading can language be?

[Caprice]

It can be amazing how many misunderstandings can come out of the simple misinterpretation of a word, a sentence, a body gesture, a look...

Do you think that language always conveys what we mean it to convey?

[Nemesis]

there is a proverb that says "it's not what you say, but how you say it"
so language can be misleading when you are the one emphasising the words in a "wrong" way.
I think there has to be more than just a few words to express what you wanna say. the eyes are talkative as well, every gesture you make could express how you feel while talking and writing!
our bulletin board abets misunderstandings and disputes for we just write down some thoughts and nobody knows in which mood you were while writing these. but there's a way to express your feelings online: it's all about emoticons lol
try writing an email or just a text in a factual way and you'll soon realise that it ll sound somehow stark.

so I think, there are many things that lead to misunderstandings and misinterpretations, so it's all about how you say it.
