Their language is no more primitive than yours, of course.


What an enormous chip you have on your shoulder. I'm trying to tell you
that they did not use the noise, "muhfugger" when they were in Africa.
Muhfugger is not a language but they spoke differently.


The point remains that you made a judgement-in-ignorance about a
language you know nothing about, labeling it "primitive".


All languages are primitive compared to today if you are talking about
thousands of years prior to today.

You also
have no clue whether they have a 'noise meaning "muhfugger"'


I'm sure they would have.
