If there is one thing that is rather unique in our world, it is the fact that we can communicate through a spoken language. From the time we are very young, we use our words to get the attention of others and to speak our mind in a way that they can understand.

It may do so slowly, but if you were to transport back 100 years or more, you might just not fit in with the rest when it came to communicating. Go back several hundred or one thousand years and it might be close to impossible.
