Defining either word, family or friend

As our culture evolves, the language we use to express our- selves changes too. To fully understand the world in which we live, it’s important to fully comprehend the depth and breadth of the words that we use to describe it. Words that have more than definition or more than one meaning enrich not only our vocabulary, but also our lives. Write a 1,500–1,700 word extended definition essay using either the word friend or the word family that analyzes the word’s historical, social, and/or cultural evolution.
