Language is an evolutionary adaptation. Language first appeared among Homo sapiens somewhere between 30,000 and 100,000 years ago and people has spoken with languages, changing and creating the language to better survive. That's where the idea of natural selection comes into play, which is the notion that the specific physical traits of a population make that population more likely to survive its environment. Thanks to the language, people are able to communicate each other and make society. Many hunters can hunt very well and also save their lives easily by using languages. As humans learned more about how to best survive, they developed a need to communicate these survival methods to their population. Also, as they share their language, they were able to create concept about family and society. 
  A baby is also related to adaptation of language. The baby is the most helpless creature among the creatures if the earth. It is dependent on its parents for survival. In the absence of a common language there would be no communication, and, therefore, no family. The paternity of the child could not be established. Only the mother could be identified. Where knowledge does not exist, it is difficult to establish any connection between the sexual act and the birth, notwithstanding the period of nine months that elapses before the child is born. Even this connection is made possible by the use of language. 
   We, people has developed many things and made a lot of inventions. Television, cellphone, computer, refrigerator, air conditioner, i-pad, printer, even pencil, are these things existed in the past? The answer is absolutely no. However we can know that these things can be invented by using languages and recording the way to make them. Inventors need to discuss with peers about invents and they need people's need and they try to solve people's inconvenience.
  With these examples, I want to tell you that language is evolved, people can change their language, but people who use their country's language should a common language so that other people can understand the meaning of the word. If people had their way to create their own language, no one can communicate and that could not be language. Because language is evolutionary adaptation, we can use language, express our opinion and survive.
