I know all languages were created once, but this thought reminds me of parents naming children— an act of authority— and the naming of places and things by “authorities” and “owners” and other such acts as opposed to dialects and names and grammars naturally arising out of the processes of evolution. But the other half of me says this is irrational, that all languages were once created by people, and I am unsure which to trust. What are your thoughts?
