Dear At
Of course language is connected to the nervous system (language is really
a behaviour), and the nervous system is connected to our other resources,
eyes, ears, skin( feel) which is part of the cybernetic feedback loop,
mental or internal representations and our behaviour. Plus our behaviours
are connected ( often not close in time) to our environment. naturally we
would develop words to describe the world outside of ourselves plus our
inner worlds. Nothing we say do, write, hear, see is unconnected with
systems theory.
