HOW did we come to use language? Anatomical Changes (Phylogenic/ Natural Selection) We developed the vocal musculature that was required for the production for varied sounds. The jaw musculature was reduced for finer control of the mandible.
WHY did we come to use language? To affect the behavior of the LISTENER. To get them to do what we need/want them to do.
The verbal responses we EMIT are DISTINGUISHED by... The OCCASIONS on which they occur (antecedents); The CONSEQUENCES they produce.
