Yes, it helps us understand language. And, if people would do just this then they wouldn't argue over the word of God...Because, then they would know EXACTLY what He has to say!!!!!!!!!!! People who try and read the word of God literally, miss the entire content of meaning...They have to take it back to the original languages, OT~ Hebrew & Aramaic...NT~Greek! Period! As everyone should have the knowledge that Paul who wrote most of the NT divinely inspired by God and taught the people God's word...DID NOT carry a KJV under his arm to do so. The KJV is written in the Queens English...MUCH different than the original languages!!!
