Language as a system of communication consisting of sounds, words and grammar, is human-specific i.e. it is basically about humans.One major fact about language is that , though it is dynamic, its changes must be based on strict observance and adherence to linguistic rules. Whenever languages are in contact, interference is bound to occur at all levels of linguistic description.The ability of an individual to be aware of this interference and not blunder grammatically marks him as having the mastery of the language.
