You can have no communication without information and no information without variables, and variables are not static.Language as in conversation is a static process because the words communicated, the conversation is built up in the mind's of those participants. If we were to play a game of chess and we both could agree that our 'moves' on the board were the language, you could say that the language is dynamic because there is a definate interaction and is confined to some causal properties and both parties 'should' be operating within certain 'rules'.
I guess that makes sense if you discard the fact that languages are variables arranged in meaningful patterns attached to concepts and simply focus on the interaction between parties communicating within a framework.
So basically you are saying that an individuals use of language is considered static unless they are interacting with other individuals that dynamically respond to the communication creating a causal chain of responses?
