NATURE OF LANGUAGE
NATURE OF LANGUAGE
The
minute I set eyes on an animal I know what it is. I dont have to reflect a moment; the right name comes out instantly. I seem to know just by the shape of the creature and the way it acts what animal it is. When the dodo came along he [Adam] thought it was a wildcat. But I saved him. I just spoke up in a quite natural way and said Well, I do declare if there isnt the dodo!
- Mark Twain, Eves Diary
