# Language Why do we use a language framing? We think that with it we can express the capacity of a network to define itself as an [Agent](/agent.md) and to redefine itself. Language framing reveals the economic protocol as a communication agreement: a capability to create new spaces and agents through conversation. Language framing also emphasises that governance is not about structures, but about expressions, who can express and what. And the framing also reveals the symmetricity in our approach: by sharing a language, everyone can have an equal capacity of economic expression, by which they can start to define roles, make agreements about sublanguages etc. VS. the predefined roles of the server-client model. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
