Words! Words may be spoken or written. When spoken, there are times they just come out. Sometimes we may not get what is said due to accent, inaudibility and intonation. Yet we speak them. At times spoken words may destroy as we may not have the power to retrieve them.

Written words are formed from letters. The letters are arranged in a way to make sensible words. The words then form sentences and so on. Written words unlike the spoken word may be kept over time. We need to record spoken words to have such an impact. How do you go about with a record player to record all voices. The written word just comes recorded.
