How did man first begin to use language?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Intuitively, one might speculate that hominids (human ancestors) started by grunting or hooting or crying out, and 'gradually' this 'somehow' developed into the sort of language we have today. (Such speculations were so rampant 150 years ago that in 1866 the French Academy banned papers on the origins of language!)

Explanation:

Can language help modern humans learn?

Rather than considering toolmaking as a proxy for language ability, he and his colleagues explored the way that language may help modern humans learn to make such tools. The researchers recruited 184 students from the University of St. Andrews in the United Kingdom, where some members of the team were based, and organized them into five groups.

How does language change over time?

As far back as we have written records of human language - 5000 years or so - things look basically the same. Languages change gradually over time, sometimes due to changes in culture and fashion, sometimes in response to contact with other languages. But the basic architecture and expressive power of language stays the same.

Drag the comma to the correct place in the sentence. Amber said I hope I am not late for the school bus this morning

Answers

If there has to be one, it should probably go after the word "said"

Explanation:

"Amber said, I hope I am not late for the school bus this morning."

I would say that it doesn't really need a comma, but if it has to have one then that would be the most logical answer.

Do u know that the earth can be flat or circled?

Answers

Answer:

it is circled because Earth makes a full spin around its axis once every 24 hours, or one day. The axis is an imaginary line through the center of the planet from the North Pole to the South Pole. Rather than straight up and down, Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees.

Explanation:

Lately, as flat-Earth theorists have become more vocal, it seems as though people are more frequently asking questions of that very nature, and the movement is gaining ground. Just this week, a flat-earth believer launched himself into space in a homemade rocket in an effort to disprove the round-Earth theory.These questions go against every logical explanation of what we know to be true about our planet: mainly, that it is sphere-shaped and orbits the sun.

The two friends had been planning the campout for more than two weeks. They picked out a spot for the tent in Josephine's backyard. They chose the games they wanted to play. Now they were at the store with Josephine's dad buying camping food. "This campout is going to be perfect," Cora said as she dropped a bag of marshmallows into the cart. "We have the perfect tent, the perfect games, and the perfect food!"2 Just then a loud clap of thunder sounded outside. The wind whipped as a bright flash filled the dark sky.3 "But not the perfect weather," Cora moaned.4 "That was thunder and that means rain. Rain means no camping," Josephine groaned.5 "I guess we can stop shopping!" Cora snapped. She began taking food out of the cart.6 As Josephine's father placed the food back in the cart, he told the girls not to give up on their campout. They paid for the food and went back to Josephine's house to wait out the storm.7 At dinnertime the sky remained dark gray as the rain continued to pour down outside. The girls sat in silence while they ate. Cora looked out the window and said sadly, "I can't believe it's still raining. Our campout was supposed to be perfect."8 Josephine nodded as she looked from her plate to the window. Josephine's father told the girls that just because something seems impossible doesn't mean it can't happen. He told them to finish eating, go upstairs, and get ready for the campout.9 They looked out the window and wondered how they could still have a campout. How would they stay dry? How would Josephine's father build a fire with wet wood? It was not possible that they could camp in the backyard. Josephine and Cora gathered their sleeping bags and games anyway. They walked slowly down the stairs.10 When the girls got to the bottom of the steps, they smiled. Josephine's living room looked like a forest. The chairs and tables were gone, and potted plants took their place. A fire crackled in the fireplace. Strings of tiny lights glittered like fireflies on the walls. Best of all, the tent was set up in the middle of the room. Josephine and Cora were going to camp after all!11 Josephine and Cora learned that the rain didn't have to spoil their fun. They didn't need to be outside to camp. They didn't need a real campfire to cook hot dogs or marshmallows. Josephine and Cora's indoor campout was perfect because they didn't give up on it.Read the passage on the left to answer the following questions:3) Which sentence BEST describes the theme of this story?A) If you're hopeful, the weather could improve. B) Don't give up when something seems impossible. C) Sometimes you have to change your plans. D) Facing the truth is always the best choice. 4) Which sentence BEST explains the lesson Josephine and Cora learned?A) Good friends are hard to find. B) Always look on the bright side.
