Children speak reverse speech first. David Oates

 FWIW. Children speak reverse speech FIRST. (He has recordings!)


Could have pastoral implications, re: chiasm.  But in learning languages, the mind of a child is more plastic.
If/Since 'reverse speech' is metaphoric, if early ideographs before alphabet were metaphoric, Ezra Pound's view that Babel was a change of language types...hmm?

I'll  post more. David Oates' 'Reverse Speech' on Kindle.
