Timeline: If There Was Only One Language

Earth is divided up into 7 continents that house 196 different countries. These 196 countries, with their 7.5 billion citizens, utilize approximately 7,000 languages. As we move forward into the 21st century, are we moving closer towards linguistic solidarity? What would it mean if there was one language that every human could understand? Find out the possibilities of such a scenario in this timeline video.

There would still be subtitles for people who are deaf/hard of hearing.

"No subtitles" "No interpreters"
Deaf people: Gone, reduced to atoms

The saddest part is that we won’t be able to say “I’m in french bread” being that bread is “pain” in french

The thing is, when you know your original language, it sometimes feels like the whole world knows it, but reality is that you know it because you've spoken it for a long time

0:42 “No more subtitles”
Deaf people: *Am I a joke to you?*

The moral is "The beginning is the end, the end is the beginning"

Any language will eventually have its dialects separate from the original until It can no longer be understandable this usually takes centuries but yeah.

[faizbano]

having one language is one of the best ways to unite humanity and i hate wasting my time studying and learning different languages when i can spend that precious time learning new things about our planet and the universe which may help in improving our lifestyle.

Though there are some advantages for having a one language but it has some disadvantages too. Languages represents culture and diversity.

“No more subtitles”
Me and the people who watch anime on sub: you.. *MONSTER*

[draculemihawk]

I wonder which is the original comment with:
"Why would you need subtitles when you can perfectly understand what they say?" Deaf people: 0_0

[snoopychaunfilms]

Subtitles would still be used for the people that can’t hear.

[roupenmagardichian]

A long time ago there was Babylon where people spoke only 1 language but as time passed dialects began to form and as more time passed the dialects became harder and harder until new languages started to form and made the world today

[spaceseesaw]

Imagine getting arrested for saying "bon appetit"
