Some thought it came from Turkish, and some thought it came from mouth pantomime. Where did language really come from? Well from what has been read, nobody really knows. Sure threre are plenty of theories, but if famous Greek philosophers, like Pythagoras, or Plato couldn't figure it out, But do not lose hope of anyone figuring it out. Many thought the language might have come from people hearing an animal and then imitating the sound that the animal made and making a word. But what if these sounds, sounded differently to different people. In english, a rooster says cock-a-doodle-doo, but in French, a rooster says cocorico, and in Italian, a rooster says chichhirichi. I think thats a pretty good theory because sounds could make many words like: splish/splash/crash/bash/smash etc. By then you'd think neanderthals with larger heads(brains) then people today would've gotten the idea and formed words for everything.

             In many ways, language is referred to as a tree because one laguage comes from another language and branches off to another language and so on. As an example, I''ll take a branch from the indo-European tree: Latin comes from Italic. From latin there Romanian, Catalan, Portugugese, Spanish, Italian, French, and Provecal. About 6,000 years ago a tribe of people living in the Eurasion Plian north of the Dneipr river, in what is now Ukraine, spoke a language from which all languages of today's Europe and India developed. It is called Indo-European. As the original tribe expanded, a few parts of it moved father and father away from the original central language, developing their own dialects. Without TV or radio to keep everyone in contact, eventually those dialects changed so much that they became different languages.

             The original language contained a word that had three varients. Those varients are pt-pet-pot, which meant something like "fly" or "flow" or both. These forms probably have something to do with tenses like the ones in English.
