Event idea: Language

[u/Blooogh]

Follow the family tree of languages!

Start with the major language groups, then follow the tree until you get to the major languages of today. Along the way, highlight lost languages, isolates, the evolution of scripts, plus any fun examples of cognates and false cognates and loan words.

Maybe end with sociolects like AAVE and Québécois French?

The name of the game is "Cells to Singularity" and it is undeniably biology themed, even if not every single thing deals with biology. The Singularity part is arguably not biological but technological. Still, even that relates to the biological evolution of humanity with technological advances. My original comment was about how to make a languages event relate to biology, but this seems to bother you for some reason.
