INTRODUCTION
Human communication relies heavily on language, which also has a fundamental impact on how we perceive and comprehend the world. But language is also a complicated, multifaceted thing that both native speakers and non-native speakers experience a lot of difficulties with. The complexity of language usage is examined in this essay, with a focus on multilingual viewpoints.
THE ROYAL PREROGATIVE

Gender-Biased and Stereotypical Language Usage:
The article investigates the usage of stereotyped and gender-biased vocabulary in English, Urdu, Saraiki, Punjabi, and other languages.

Gender-neutral terminology has been used in an effort to overcome these problems, nevertheless.
Gender Variance in Different Languages:

CONCLUSION
The article comes to the conclusion that language is a complicated, dynamic concept that presents daunting difficulties for ESL and EAP educators. It makes the case that by embracing linguistic complexity, we may improve our own communication abilities and get a deeper understanding of other cultures.
