New genetic research suggests that humans first developed language around 135,000 years ago, with its widespread social use around 100,000 years ago. This study, using data from 15 genetic studies, indicates that language likely began as a cognitive system before becoming crucial for social communication.
A new genomic study suggests that the capacity for human language emerged at least 135,000 years ago, coinciding with the initial geographic divergence of Homo sapiens. This capacity likely transitioned into social use around 100,000 years ago, as indicated by symbolic activities in the archaeological record.
A pair of landmark studies published in Nature have identified the origin of the Indo-European family of over 400 languages, spoken by more than 40% of the world's population, to the Caucasus Lower Volga people in present-day Russia around 6,500 years ago.
Harvard researchers traced the origins of the vast Indo-European language family to the Caucasus-Lower Volga region, identifying the ancestral population known as the Yamnaya, who appeared around 3300 BCE and spread from Hungary to western China.
An exploration of the emergence of Delvish, a dialect created by Large Language Models (LLMs) that is increasingly prevalent online. The article delves into its characteristics, linguistic quirks, and potential implications.
Explores the dynamic relationship between language, cognition, and the role of Large Language Models (LLMs) in expanding our understanding of the functional significance of language.
This article discusses the origin and migration of Homo sapiens, the first modern humans. It covers their evolution, the development of language, and their migration out of Africa between 70,000 and 100,000 years ago. It also touches upon the environmental impacts of human migration.
Researchers discovered that the brain interprets negated adjectives differently than affirmative ones, exhibiting a mitigating rather than inverting effect. This finding contributes to the understanding of how the brain processes negation and other complex linguistic operations.
