How did the very first human ever know what a word meant?
Before dictionaries, writing, or even a proper language existed, our ancestors somehow went from making random sounds to using sounds that actually meant something. But how?
In this video, we travel deep into human prehistory to uncover how our ancestors may have turned simple sounds, gestures, and shared experiences into the first meaningful words — and how an entire language could grow from almost nothing.
From pointing and warning each other about danger to naming objects, people, and ideas, this is the fascinating story of how humans may have discovered the power of meaning.
So… what was the very first word?
And more importantly — how did anyone know what it meant?
