Clues

  • Divided into a left and right handside, with control of functions one one side or the other. (11)
  • Early humans imitated noises of animals/things and referred to them by using this noise. Evidence: onomatopoeic words (3, 3, 6)
  • Idea- humans genetically equipped to acquire language (10, 10)
  • only have trivial representation (9, 5)
  • Speech developed from instinctive sounds people make from emotional situations. Expressive noises people make in emotional reactions are not used in speech production (so unlikely source of lang) (4, 4, 6)
  • the origin of language, suggested started by some religious source (6, 6)
