Words, they’re all around us, they assault us every day in every way possible, from talking with your friends to sitting down and having a quiet few minutes with a book, words are firmly entwined with every aspect of our lives.

They hold a huge sway over our actions and our emotions, they can make us happy, sad, angry, they can make us buy, make us jump for joy, sometimes even without us realizing they are doing it.
