Four distinct stages of human language evolution are suggested by clustering of speech and language comprehension abilities in individuals with language deficits

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Use of syntactic language is a unique characteristic of humans. Following the split of human line from chimpanzee line around six million years ago some individuals acquired genetic modifications that enabled certain linguistic abilities. Over time these mutations were fixed in the human population and currently enable modern human syntactic communication. Inevitably, in some modern ind...
