la la la language

[saw]

you call it forbidding
I call it parsimonious descent
an extraordinary body
adaptive info
intellectual tinker toys
encoded in the sounds
native tongues
linguistic marvels
language, language

totally unrelated
to any known family
English has a mere thirty one sounds
so what do we do when we find
one hundred forty one,
a cacophony of cadence
and clicks
the very birth,
of language

[judih]

soundscapes
dare we open our ears
try to perceive

[goldenmyst]

The the evolution of language is poetically captured in precise vivid words. Fascinating.
