We're climbing back into the linguistic time machine and taking a look at language in the long view. We'll find out what language was like

  • 100,000 years ago
  • 1 million years ago
  • 10 million years ago

and then jump into the future

  • 100 years
  • 1,000 years, and
  • 10,000 years from now.

What will we find?
