Animals communicate. Honeybees do a waggle dance to communicate the direction and distance of food to the rest of the hive. Humpback whales use sounds such as clicks to socialize with other members of a pod. Chimpanzees use facial expressions and gestures to communicate a variety of things to other chimpanzees. But only humans have the ability through spoken and written language to communicate a seemingly infinite number of thoughts and ideas. How did human language begin? How did it evolve into the thousands of individual languages in the world today? What are the social implications of human language? Learn the answers to these and other questions about human language in this class.
