Elmara: Spirit Of Fire

Is anyone as fascinated by words as I am? It's just so amazing how we have entire languages through which to communicate. What do you suppose they did before then?

Yeah, but a grunt is about all you need to say, "I want mammoth meat" or "That tiger is about to kill you." :P

It's just not the same.

I agree completely with this entry. The human race is lucky to have language. Not only is it a complex way of communication that allows people to talk about things they have never experienced, it tells you a library's worth of information about the people speaking it and their culture. If not for language, many professions, including antrhopologists and linguists as the top two, would be nonexistent, and there would practically no way to spread knowledge of things never experienced by the person talking about them.
