Kindness because it is the act of being helpful and compassionate towards others. Small acts of kindness can make a big difference in someone's day.
@tegan_bradleysz Great! Kindness, it covers almost everything. But there is still a language barrier as they speak different languages.
Google Translate
@franklyn_dang What if to make a video and send video email? For example with www.onemob.com? As a rule videos make communication easier

Any social media platform will do depending on the intent and context of the connections. Google is a best fit for bridging the language barrier.
@rhexai Yes! Right. Social networks can bring people of different languages closer together with the help of GOOGLE Translate. In that case, I could type but I would hesitate to call someone else. What to do if they meet in real life? I mean when they have strong enough feelings to decide to meet in real life.

@franklyn_dang Right, probably utilize stacks such as google translate, duolingo to perfect different languages. That could help with comprehending each other in case of real-life meetups. That would really help. Do you have any suggestions because I'm so open to that!
Listening and actually hearing others 🙏🏼
@agnieszka_rybij Yes, it's really necessary. But to be able to listen and understand what the other person is saying, language is a barrier.

Definitely not easy, I'd say, since besides language barries we also have cultural differences, mentalities and all that. Even some gestures might mean completely different things in different cultures.
@sviridov Yes, it's not as easy. But with the help of current technology, we can help solve part of it. Personally, I find that solving the language barrier will be easier in this case. And I'm looking for a solution to make face-to-face conversation between two people with different languages easier. Do you have any ideas?
By communicating and building relationships
@deepshikha_dhankher How about the different language issue? Which way we can?
@franklyn_dang Although I know it's kind of difficult but we can try using translation tools for language issue.
@deepshikha_dhankher Sure, it's one of the ways we can use to chat on social. But that will be difficult to call.
Building good connections and fostering a more compassionate society both require empathy.
@leonard_frampton Empathy will help two people understand each other better. But before that happens, they need to overcome the language barrier.
It's definitely not simple, in my opinion, because in addition to linguistic barriers, there are cultural ones as well as mentality ones. Even certain gestures could have entirely different connotations depending on the culture.
@jessie_arms Yes, but we can solve it step by step. First of all, we should solve the problem of communication language, which helps us understand what the other person is saying first.
