Language has many key factors that can convey a collection of thoughts, or provide the barrier between conveying said thoughts. Ambiguity in language thrives in this environment. Often times, too little information due to common phrases such as, “You shouldn’t have,” or “We saw her duck,” leaves room for the mind to wander. Each person in a room of 5 would lean towards a different interpretation of each statement. This is ambiguity at its finest. Causing confusion and disarray. 
	On many occasions we are faced with ambiguous statements or words, which one could remove all speculation with simple precising definitions or more details. Asking questions before proceeding can be used in everyday conversations to mitigate language ambiguity due to understanding. Many times, while communicating we tend to skip over important details due to the perspective of the speaker. For example, one time in elementary school, I was plagued with the negative effects of language ambiguity. My mother was a stay-at-home mom with my baby sister, while my dad was at work. I had just recently learned the address to my home, because my dad was giving me responsibility by saying, “Son, while I’m at work, you’re the man of the house,” which was ambiguous as well. He meant well and was sowing seeds in to my young brain. So, I had taken this responsibility very seriously.
The first step of operations after my father had unlocked the chamber of responsibility in my brain, was learning the address to my home. After learning my home address 711 Fort St, as well as some other things like taking out the trash and chasing the dog when he got out, (because these things were making me a man) I felt as though I had some importance in my home and I needed to protect my family. One day while walking home from school with some friends, we had heard that 7eleven had caught on fire. I never considered that my address was the same as a million-dollar establishment, but immediate fear struck my mind. My heart sank to my stomach and instant panic overcame my body. I took off running in the direction of my home, while my best-friend panicked and followed me because he too knew it was a problem. All I could think of is the danger my mother and sister would be in when I got there. I reached my neighborhood, but not a single fire truck, ambulance or police officer in sight. Confused, but with the adrenaline rush from panicking, I could not stop running towards my home to see what had happened. As I get to my doorstep, my mother opened the door and after seeing the look on my face, she was confused and began to ask why was I in such a frenzy. I couldn’t even muster up any words, and just began to cry from all of the emotions all at once. 
	A few extra details, makes the initial statement a completely different scenario. This lack of information was the key factor leading to ambiguity. Granted some of it may have been due to age, but adding elements to the statement would have clarified things. I could have also asked more clarifying questions, that would have given more details to inform me that my home was not fire. Even the simple aspect that this was the “Slurpee capital of the world,” would surely have put my mind at ease and let me know that my family and home was safe. These occurrences happen often due to language syntax, semantics, and perspectives. Lack of details, used in common statements at different times all can mean different things. Perspective being that, the speaker may know exactly what they mean, but that is not what is conveyed to the listener. Common phrases and cultural changes promote language ambiguity as languages evolve and become more complex.
