Language

We speak different languages, only because as the human race developed, we moved around the earth further and faster than our ability to communicate with each other. One a culture was cut off, it developed its own language over time.

Now, everyone on the earth can quickly and cheaply communicate with everyone else. So, although we don't even know it, our cultures are now slowly evolving to speak the same language. It's inevitable.

Or is it?

In what year will everyone on earth speak the same language?

What language will that be? Will we recognize it?
