Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origin and development of language, focusing on oral language as the main medium of communication. The author argues that the earliest forms of language were composed primarily of verbs expressing simple actions and that mimetic language, or the imitation of sounds in nature, played a key role in the development of language. The book challenges traditional theories that posit the existence of a substantive verb as essential to language and proposes an alternative view that prioritizes the expression of action and agency. Through a detailed analysis of various languages, including Latin, Sanskrit, and English, the author explores the evolution of language from its primitive origins to its present complexity, shedding light on the fundamental nature of human communication.
