In space exploration, humans try to land on Mars and set up accommodation there, and it
takes seven months to visit the Red Planet. If we could establish colonies on Mars, contact
between the people living on the Earth and the people living on Mars could be interrupted for
some decades, so differences between languages would begin. It's likely the differences
between British English and American English. Emojis might be the most important
representation of modem communication. On Facebook Messenger, for instance, it's possible
to set a favourite emoji so that you never have to reply with anything else. However, the use
of emojis in communication is limited by several factors, like the absence of grammatical
rules and inability to express any feeling.

using the minimum number of content words and removing the functional ones.
