Imagine you're a child learning to speak. The first languages were like tools that helped people share ideas and feelings with others, just like how we use words today. When people started talking, they could explain things better and even work together more easily. This made it easier for groups of humans to survive and grow.
Examples
- A group of people used simple sounds to warn each other when a lion was nearby.
