Imagine you're a kid playing with your friend. You say, 'I want that ball!' That's like the first people talking, they made sounds to mean things! At first, there were only simple cries and grunts, but over time, those grew into full words and sentences. It was like building a giant dictionary from scratch, one sound at a time.
Examples
- A child points at a red ball and says, 'That's mine!'
- Two friends shout, 'You're coming with me!' before going hunting.
- An adult makes a low growl when they see a predator nearby.
