Why do different languages exist?
Different languages exist because not everyone is going to say the same things for 1000's of years. Languages develope, due to either influences by foreigners or isolation. For example, a language which has not changed for a very long time is Icelandic, which hasn't changed since the beginning of the Viking age, and is the closest nordic language to what the vikings spoke, as they have been isolated for so long, and not had many influences with other languages. So their language couldn't change, because it had no reason to. Where as, English was made on the Base of Old Saxon from the Saxons who came from Germany and Denmark to live in England. From there the English language was given its Germanic words. But some words changed, and other words were added when the Vikings from Norway and Denmark came and raided towns and cities in Britain, leaving behind them many words which we still use today. And finally, the way English was changed to be what it is in Modern English, was by the Normans, who were Vikings who settled in Normandy and adopted the French language over the Danish language, and who conquered England in 1066, introducing over 30,000 French words into the English language. That is why the English language has so many similarities with German, the Nordic languages, and French. It didnt just pop out of no where. Different languages exist because of change in society and in power, and because of influences. If you study languages, or research languages just because you find them interesting, like me, you would realize why there are so many languages in the world. And btw, there are 2,094 languages in the world. (another example is like this: If you give a man a fish to cook and eat, he will teach his children how he cooked, and each generation the cooking methods will change, either due to technology or just by experimenting with different things. Basically waht im saying is that, nothing is ever the same. Why is there different pizza's in the world? Because people were given the Pizza as a starting ground, and now you have pizza's with many different things on it. I hope i have explained enough)
