Did you know that although their parents' respective languages may be very different,there is a marked similarity between the babbling of babies throughout the world? A study of 15 different 'language environments' revealed that babies from Africa to Norway use many of the same consonants in their prattle.For example, all babies in the study were heard to pronounce the consonants 'm' and 'b '.
We should take up baby gibberish..we've spoken it before and it would be like a universal translator.
Ba ga goo,ga ma ma da do boo moo.

I've noticed that babies all over the world say "illay" when they want to be fed. And curiously, that is like "le lait" -- the French for milk!
I think this is a great idea. But we would have such a restricted and (let's admit it!) self centred range of words!

Agree with you - its not coincidence that the word for mother sounds the same world wide - mama, maman,ma, amma, amah - there's proof for you!
