Long before there was English, German, Hindi, Spanish, French and the myriad of other languages that we speak today, there was Proto-Indo European or what linguists affectionately call PIE. Believed to have been spoken sometime between 4,500 and 3,700 B.C. by our ancestors in Europe and Asia, it is the most researched of all ancient languages simply, because it is believed to be the root of many of the modern ones.

        If we all spoke the same language, it would be easier to communticate with each other. I think it has more advantages to that.

              Answer to critical thinking question: That would be so weird! But it would be much easier to communicate with people from other countries. But it would also mean that we couldn't learn to speak another language because there would be none! This article is cool.

                  sounds like Pashto, German, and Russian mixed together.
