Certain phrases, babbling, is innate to humanity
the word 'ma' for example is spoken by infants regardless of where they are born, and as historically it's the mother who care's for the child out of necessity, the word 'ma' or 'mama' has come to mean mother in nearly every language in the world independently
The infant did not mean anything by 'ma', but the adult in it's life reacted positively to it and the word was given meaning, a name for adult female caretaker

Why not? Could be that we discovered language, that it was handed to us? Not that we created it. Get creative you brainlet fuck.

So a theory on the origin of language can't be purely philosophical and therefore belong to /lit/?
