language families

A?language family?is a group of?languages?related through?descent?from a common ancestor, called the?proto-language?of that family. The term 'family' comes from the?tree model?of language origination in?historical linguistics, which makes use of a metaphor comparing languages to people in a biological?family tree, or in a subsequent modification, to species in a?phylogenetic tree?of evolutionary?taxonomy. No actual biological relationship between speakers is implied by the metaphor.

Lila Balakrishnan Ms. Badger World Studies II per. 3 6 March 2013 Short Written Response TFA Chinua Achebe created the fascinating work of Things Fall Apart which detailed the life of Okonkwo, a man of the Igbo people, as his life, and the way of his people, ?fell apart? with the coming of Christianity. A tragic hero due to his crumbling life and flawed nature, Okonkwo truly epitomizes this character type through his tragic and unnecessary death. Okonkwo?s death by trying to show his people how they were losing their culture was truly in vain and as such, affected the work differently.
