It not quite enough to suggest models that describe parts of the
linguistic process, it is also important to show how these models fit
within the larger body of knowledge that we have about physical
systems.
In the next Section we will scale the problem to include a
description of the emergence of language in terms of synaptic
functions and prosodic flow. While considering the dynamics of
language evolution from a physics point of view we will build a finer
grained argument that will include neural functions amongst many brains.
The integration of the physics of language theory and the theory that
describes a kind of neural competition that exists amongst brains,
offers a functional description on how linguistic activities may have
emerged.
