Not really. Language is not a bar in exchange of emotions and feelings
Different means of expressing feelings and emotions:
- 7% of message pertaining to feelings and attitudes is in the words that are spoken.
- 38% of message pertaining to feelings and attitudes is paralinguistic (the way that the words are said).
- 55% of message pertaining to feelings and attitudes is in facial expression.
~ Professor Albert Mehrabian
Mehrabian's work featured strongly (mid-late 1900s) in establishing early understanding of body language and non-verbal communications.

Yes, Sufia. Unless the person has a long experience in another culture. Meaning is negociated between the parties. Words have not static meanings. Each word said has a different meaning according to the situation it is said, not according to the person. That is, a sentence may have a value for me now and later assume a different or stronger or weaker meaning to me.
Not much!
Emotions and feelings can be exchanged by body language and face expressions.
Many contemporary psychological models of emotion agree with this common sense perspective. In these views, emotions are physical types that are essentially distinct from linguistic or conceptual processing.
Yet growing psychological research suggests that the role of language may run deeper in emotions than either laypeople or researchers previously thought.

We know that the eye is the mirror of the soul, it expresses the feelings and live human being. So I think the language is coming soon!
The language of the eyes cannot lie.
With a little talk of emotion, the overwhelming focus is on language, tactics and rationality, with an occasional nod to “body language”.
Most of us associate conflict with negative emotions – anger, frustration, fear, sadness and confusion – we tend to underestimate the importance of positive emotions in its resolution. Forgiveness, open-heartedness, empathy, insight, intuition, learning, wisdom, and willingness to change brings in oxytocin

What's so well written novel? There's only language. It describes everything you need.
The purpose of communication is conveying message from one to another.
Language is only a mean and a channel for communication, and as Behrouz indicated earlier strings may convey through other non-verbal channels.
Language is a conveyor belt and if it is not smooth due to difference in language then emotion can't flow
Language is a cover and bar of emotion and feeling of some body. It is used express the feeling and emotion of human being.
I do not think that language is a bar or barrier in exchanging emotions & feelings. Many times, I liked persons by looking at their faces & by looking into their so-called "body language". Sometimes, you may hate a person by seeing an "arrogant" expression provided by him/her without speaking one word.
However, knowing the language of the other helps a lot in fostering positive or negative emotions & feelings.
This may give you more insight in the use of language towards emotions
