Imagine you're playing a game with your friends. You all speak the same language at first, but when some of you move to a new place and meet other kids who don’t understand you, you start learning their words too, just like how languages spread across the world. Over time, these languages changed and grew into many different ones.
Examples
- A group of children who move to a new town start learning the words their new friends use.
- A trader from Africa teaches some words to people in the Middle East when they barter goods.
- A family moves to another country, and their language mixes with the local one over time.
