Words are the building blocks of our world.

They allow us to communicate our thoughts and ideas, to connect with each other, and to make sense of the world around us. But where do words come from? And how have they changed over time?

In his groundbreaking new book, "The Words That Made Us," linguist and author John McWhorter takes us on a fascinating journey through the evolution of language.

From the first grunts and gestures of our prehistoric ancestors to the complex and nuanced languages we speak today, McWhorter shows us how words have shaped our history, our culture, and our very way of thinking.

Along the way, we'll learn about the origins of some of the most common words in our language, such as "love," "hate," and "God." We'll also explore the role that language has played in major historical events, such as the American Revolution and the Civil War.

"The Words That Made Us" is a must-read for anyone who is interested in language, history, or the human condition. It is a fascinating and thought-provoking book that will change the way you think about the words you use every day.

Here are just a few of the many things you'll learn in "The Words That Made Us":

  • How the first words evolved from grunts and gestures
  • The role that language has played in major historical events
