"I can read Aramic and Hebrew written 2,00 years ago", 2 years ago? SPECTACULAR!!!!I can read Aramic and Hebrew written 2,00 years ago.Languages, due to greed and lust, were entangled with other languages.
That does not mean the languages changed.
Languages are entangled due to interaction between cultures due to proximity, war and trade.
Yes, that does mean they changed
I have many friends who can read 2,000 year old texts in various languages.
The issue is how technology added words.
The root language remains the same
It’s called post-truth. Who needs thousand year old facts when it doesn’t relate to the point they want to make. Right, Unkontare?There you go - what? That you kept your 9th grade World History textbook? Congratulations on the common knowledge.... The fact is the reason there are so many languages is because God divided the tongues of the nations of the earth because of what took place at the Tower of Babel.
That's a story, and if that is what you choose to believe, more power to you. The FACT is that languages develop wherever human communities are either isolated from other communities for a sufficient period of time, or civilizations of unequal strength and influence come into prolonged contact with one another under particular circumstances.
No, the Tower of Babel is true and recorded in history.
There really isn’t much left of the Tower of Babel. Alexander the Great removed bricks and the outer coating, but he never rebuilt it. However, most researchers think they know where the foundation is located.
Also, there was an archaeological artifact found called a “stele.” A stele (pronounced the same as steal or steel) is actually a rock slab with pictures and inscriptions on it. Archaeologists love finding things like this.
The Tower of Babel stele has an image of Nebuchadnezzar next to the Tower of Babel. It shows its shape as a ziggurat (imagine a step pyramid or a pyramid with several flat layers on it).
About 440 B.C., a historian named Herodotus claimed he saw the tower and described it:
“It has a solid central tower, one furlong square, with a second erected on top of it and then a third, and so on up to eight. All eight towers can be climbed by a spiral way running around the outside, and about halfway up there are seats for those who make the journey to rest on.”
There you go.
Apparently, the truth can't penetrate the thickness up there. You can't even provide anything to back up your claim of "The FACT is that languages develop wherever human communities are either isolated from other communities for a sufficient period of time, or civilizations of unequal strength and influence come into prolonged contact with one another under particular circumstances." We can all use a fact, but yours isn't.
The only thing that changes language is outside influence. Whether culture, dispersion, localization, or anything else. The point is that even Tarzan learned English. (Tongue in cheek) It takes a willing heart to be able to express ones self in a foreign language because it feels unnatural at first but the more you consume it and practice the words it becomes written into your being, therefore you’re able to be yourself, except using a different language. Now imagine having to give an inspirational speech in a foreign language."I can read Aramic and Hebrew written 2,00 years ago", 2 years ago?

But a Biblical Hebrew speaker would not understand a modern Israeli. Hebrew has changed less than most language, but it has changed. The pace was slower because it was not a commonly spoken language for a long time.

... You believe in the science of atheism ...
... For example, the US has a melting pot of peoples who speak the same language. Instead, we have same ethnicities living together with the same language. ...
...Also, if the different languages developed, it doesn't explain how the ethnicities stayed and colonized together. The language would be based on the people of the region wouldn't it. It may not have been by ethnicity. We have Japanese living together, Waswahili living together, and Swedes living together in their countries. Wouldn't it be mixed race if the languages developed as you believe?
...
BTW there were no cave people lol.
... You believe in the science of atheism ...
I never said that. Do not presume to tell me what I believe, douche.
... I am the one saying you are wrong about how you believe the 7000 languages developed.
...
... If peoples, i.e. different ethnicities, developed a language and this evolved, then they would've stuck together and migrated together to a country of their choice. ...
...We just have a melting pot of peoples in the United States under the common language of English. ...
... It means the evidence favors God making people talk the same language by ethnicities. Afterward, they migrated together to their respective countries where they reside today.
....
Not the only thing that changes language, it also changes from within. The word 'gay' has a new meaning that it didn't have when I was a kid. I don't think there was any external driver of that change. The interweb is speeding up change as they are instantly disseminated.The only thing that changes language is outside influence.
Reminds me of an old joke: The USA and England are two countries divided by a single language. Hmmm, maybe I told it wrong?It’s called post-truth. Who needs thousand year old facts when it doesn’t relate to the point they want to make.
No, it's what happened around 2175 BC and would explain how the different ethnicities stayed together and colonized their lands. Otherwise, different peoples who lived in the same area would've stayed together. For example, the US has a melting pot of peoples who speak the same language. Instead, we have same ethnicities living together with the same language. There you go.
BTW there were no cave people lol.
Big Idea: language is more than just words. It’s your way of communicating with the world. Now what if one wants to communicate with the whole world? The only language that can do that is Kingdom language. A language unknown to man.

I love their accent, it makes anything they say sound so much more intelligent than Americans.Reminds me of an old joke: The USA and England are two countries divided by a single language.

We speak better English than most of the Brits do. Much of what they say is barely understandable
