17Plants and animals that are given names in any language are generally thse that arerelevant t peple speaking the language. The relevance cmes frm the way that the peple haveinteracted with the animals and plants. In sme cases, this has happened ver centuries.
While we might think f language as having a fixed set f wrds and rules that we learn inschl, in fact language is always develping. New wrds emerge while thers fall ut f use.Prnunciatin changes ver time. S d the meanings f wrds. 18
Our ability t learn language develps when we are yung. Sunds heard as infants, r even inthe wmb(子宫),set the stage fr language learning later.Baby cing(咕咕叫)is the result fbabies' analysis f the languages spken t them.19 Children expsed t multiple languagesearly in life, and grwing up multilingual, develp enhanced cgnitive functins. These may includethe ability t fcus and ignre distractins.
Languages are as diverse as the cmmunities that speak them. Each f the apprximately7,000 wrld languages is a prf t a cmmunity's unique human experience. Yet, many languagesarund the wrld are endangered. It is pssible that as many as half f the wrld's languages culdg silent by the end f this century.
