Without language we would be unable to record history, develop religion, or run numbers. It was necessary to separate humans from the rest of the animal world…and personally with out the written word the world wouldn’t be worth living in if you ask me.
recent studies of animals show consciousness where once we believed there was none…language is as old as life… how old are whales and they communicate through pitch and tone (language)… in humans it began as a series of grunts groans and gestures and has evolved to what we know today…but how much language is needed for survival and how much is rhetoric… The written word is only one form of language… I would say language has caused more problems with humans than it has solved…
