Headline Is this how Eve spoke? Every human language evolved from 'single prehistoric African mother tongue'

Description Every language in the world - from English to Mandarin - evolved from a prehistoric 'mother tongue' first spoken in Africa tens of thousands of years ago, a new study reveals.

After analysing more than 500 languages, Dr Quentin Atkinson found compelling evidence that they can be traced back to a long-forgotten dialect spoken by our Stone Age ancestors.

Comparing lots of languages is a favorite hobby of mine. It is incredible to think that our ancestors all spoke the same language at one time! Even though internet and world-wide news have made the world "smaller" it is interesting to ponder if the things that connect us most are in our past.
