History of the English Language: Vocab Lesson 1 &2

Practice (Key Terms): In this lesson, students will explore and practice key academic terms related to language, communication, meaning, system, interaction, message, symbol, expression, grammar, and context as they build understanding of foundational concepts. They will learn to define and distinguish language and communication while understanding their main functions. They will also examine and critically discuss the four major theories of language origin—divine language, gesture, imitation, and evolution—supporting their ideas with clear examples.
