 I am not a language specialist but I have researched others who are. The Bible portrays the spread of the 3 sons of Noah post Flood into roughly Africa, Asia (then to the Americas) and Europe. Language development would expect to be somewhat similar in each region. Above is an example. (For more anthropological information and other topics regarding Noah see my book on Noah's Flood.)

 The artist portrays the Flood as a massive event. This event is recorded throughout most of the various societies and continents of present/past times. There are variances among the stories but at least 5 out of 7 common concepts remain in each: 1-Creator exists, 2-man sins(violates the Creator's commands) and makes the Creator angry, 3-the Creator intends to destroy all mankind, 4-there are a few that the Creator chooses to preserve (most within a boat but some climb a mountain), 5-the rest of mankind and other life forms are destroyed, 6- those saved from the flood come out or down after the flood, and 7-they make a sacrifice to the Creator, and they begin to repopulate the earth.

 God has equipped every single human being with gifts and talents through which they can glorify God. These gifts are enhanced and others are given when a person is "born again" and is guided by God's Holy Spirit. God is no respecter of any man/woman for it says in:
Romans 10 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. See the "Final Chapter" of this website for more information.  There has been much excitement in the evolutionary biology community of what appear to be zygodactyl bird tracks in designated lower Cretaceous strata in China. The name of the tracks has been given Shandongornipes muxiai as no fossil bones have yet been found. Many have expressed astonishment about these bird tracks in designated dinosaur strata-as attempts continue to be made regarding the assumptions of bird to reptile (dinosaur) transition. As well, the fossil tracks are very similar to modern Roadrunner, Burrowing Owl and Northern Flicker tracks (all found in New Mexico and other states.) The term "convergent evolution" has been applied to the identical or near so tracks of living birds and the fossil ones-yet this is an assumption. Even the term stasis is problematic as there are many assumptions made in dating the age of various strata.(Note: I could have placed many quotes and references but these abound on the internet already. I hope to do a more extensive review for the website soon.) The same data can be put into a world wide Flood in which there was an ebbing and flowing of muddy waters across vast continents and various life forms which had gathered into their groups were buried more so with one another-although other fossil life forms are found across continents. Both evolution and creation are religio-philosophic worldviews. The data can be placed into either framework. However, true science is observational and these tracks and other modern and fossil ones could simply be discussed within the framework of structure/function. Yet, even this implies purpose and that fits more with a great designer. (The initial article was:Earliest zygodactyl bird feet: evidence from Early Cretaceous roadrunner-like tracks. 2007. M.G. Lockley, et al. Naturwissenschaften, published online: 27 March 2007 It and others were written within an evolutionary context.)  To God Be The Glory
