“Now the whole world had one language and a common speech.”  Genesis 11:1

The bible claims that all people started with one language.  It was broken up at the tower of Babel a few generations after Noah.  Apparently, Nimrod was trying to rule the whole world, and God decided to put a stop to his plans.  There are some who try to trace current languages back to this original language.  One book about this is “The Origin of Speeches”.  The website is edenics.org.  There are seven fundamental sounds of language.  Bilabials, Gutturals, Dentals, Nasals, Liquids, Fricatives, and Vowels.  There are also seven colors and seven musical steps.  In the future, all people will return to one language.  “Then I will purify the speech of all people, so that everyone can worship the LORD together.”  Zephaniah 3:9
