Language
Every civilization had an oral language. Unfortunately
some only have oral and no written form of communication. It is important to
archaeologists that there is a written form of language so that they can
understand their way of life. Here is some cool information:
Persian:
- The Persians spoke Old Persian.
- This language was introduced in 1000 B.C. and was spoken
until 300 B.C.
- They discovered cuneiform system of writing.
- Most Persians wrote in Aramaic script.
- One of the most famous text is the one of King Daruis's
life.
- Persian belongs to a Indo-European family.
- Persian is the most important Islamic language after
Arabic.
Roman:
- Most of the Roman language of Latin came from Greek.
- Many words in English have a Latin route.
- Romans only used capital or uppercase letters.
- The Romans only used straight lines, curves, and angles
until later in history.
- Lowercase was introduced at the beginning of the Fifth and
Sixth Centuries.
- There was no "J" in ancient Latin and
"U" was written "V" and pronounced "W".
- They used "I" where we would put a "J"
and they pronounced a "yuh" sound in these places.
