Jabberin ' is a language
American scientists found out that babies during jabberin ' open their
little mouths more on the right side than on the left.
This can point to the fact that jabberin' is a kind of language.
The right half of our brain controls the leftside of our body and vice versa.
If thus a baby during jabberin' especially uses the right side of its mouth, it
uses especially the leftside of the brain and that is the side where with we
speak.
If science can find how babies learn to talk, than science can dedect what
the origin of language is and how man did differ himself from the ape.
Question is if the child with thus an immediate ability for language is
getting born with this or if it is something that is acquired with growing up.
