What word for peace would you choose if you made up your own language? How would you spell "peace" if you had only ever heard the word and never read it? imagine if a cow or a rat ate your only book what words would you teach your children with no way to check the truth of your words would you make up words and meaning Make up a language describe the community that speaks that language what are the words for peace calm quiet tranquil Sometimes it takes more than one word to get the meaning across. It takes a community of peace to write peace in some languages. It is not a bad thing it just takes more people more connections more sounds to call peace into being. Say the word peace in whatever language you would like as loudly as you can. Tell someone about your commitment to peace and to health for yourself and others.
