Opis

Have you ever wondered why languages are so diverse in the world? Would you like to hear how different languages sound when spoken? Would you like to write your name in Chinese, Russian, or Japanese? Would you like to learn some language trivia and language history? Have you wondered about what common boys' and girls' names are in different countries? Would you like to learn some interesting things about one of these languages (and many more): Latin, Spanish, French, Greek, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, Yoruba, Finnish, and English? There are chapters in this book about how languages connect with other languages, how languages are similar and different, how languages change over time, and language games and facts. Learning about language can be really eye-opening and fascinating because language is how we all communicate together to share thinking.
