Summary The evolution process of thought, the sociocultural environment and their interdependence with language lead to new and appealing  perspectives of observation and explanation of language facts. On the other hand, the family as a natural  microsystem that is constantly interacting with the milieu and whose members behave as a microgroup in an environment  influenced by social, biological and psychological factors is a dynamic system in evolution, which is subject to continuous transformations. Accordingly, the family constitutes the suitable framework  in the formation of  new generations as it promotes sociocultural patterns and the development of language both  as means of communication and as a symbol of cultural  identity. The present paper provides several considerations in regards to these three intermingled phenomena: language, the role of the family and the communication theory from a social standpoint that encompasses verbal and non-verbal communication. All of them constitute a valuable theoretical tool for teachers, sociologists, linguists and social workers
