Marked 197 Report post Posted June 6, 2008 Would language count as an invention? Imagine communication by grunting and hand signs. Nothing much at all would run without that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to give you that.. Yet, I think other animals have languages as well.. be it we cant understand them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wyzrd 12 Report post Posted June 6, 2008 I'm pretty sure though if we hadn't learned languages we would have grown accustomed to the grunts and hand signals and it would be like speaking w.e. language you speak now, because then that would be all we know. So then it would make sense, sure, maybe now we think about it, it don't make no sense to be grunting but hey if that was all you knew it would make sense.

Leon 55 Report post Posted June 10, 2008 Fire would be the greatest 'invention', though it would be more of a discovery. Granted, the ability in itself was more vital than any invention. I know it isn't an 'invention' persay, however, without it, early man would have quickly been extinct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marked 197 Report post Posted July 5, 2008 I think topics like these are interesting. When you think about inventions you may take something such as a computer for granted. When I think of how we got to how we are today, it is truly amazing. Go out into a forest or some other uncivilized place, and with the sticks and stones around you, build a computer.
