Love Language

1. These people are from China. The man is attracted to the woman. The woman doesn't speak English and isn't speaking to the man because of her lack of lingual proficiency.
2. The conflict is between the deaf and hearing cultures, and the conflict is one of misunderstanding. Although the two groups do not bear animosity toward each other, they communicate very differently, and problems can result from this barrier.
3. The initial inability of the man and woman to communicate is an external conflict because the man and woman are unable to achieve their shared goal of communicating.
4. The man has an internal conflict over whether or not to continue his interactions with a deaf woman. This conflict is caused by conflicting desires for good communication and his interest in this woman.
5. The conflicts were resolved by the man deciding to continue talking to the woman even when he finds out that she's deaf. In this way, the man has resolved his internal conflict by deciding that the woman's positive characteristics outweigh the challenges of communication that they face. He has also resolved the external conflict by accepting her-with her physical flaws- as an individual with whom he shares interests and values.
