There are approximately 6,500 languages spoken on earth today.
Those who study languages - linguists, for ease of comprehension, analysis, study, and modeling have been able to categorize these languages into groups.
The criteria used are:
- Diachronic Relationship (evolution through time and therefore age)
- Protolanguage relationship ( that is relatedness to an older parent language from which several others derive, hence Origin) and
- The Similarity of Alphabets / Characters
French, Spanish Romanian, Tagalog, Vietnamese and Igbo languages share similar alphabetic characters and are therefore grouped under the Latin Script system.
Authoritative sources hold the current number of Language Families to be 147 in number. Of that number, 14 of them are classed as major language families. They are:
- Tupian
- Dravidian
- Austroasiatic
- Tai-kadai
- Nilo-Saharan
- Oto-manguean
- Afro-Asiatic
- Indo-European
- Asutralian
- Sino-Tibetan
- Trans-New Guinea
- Austronesian
- Niger-Congo
- Nulcear - Trans - New Guinea
Hence we can rightly say that option B is the correct answer.

In Greek, Ethos has the meaning of the character and it is using when someone is trying to describe or persuade ideals that are characterizing some ideology. When using Ethos it is important that we are using trust and confidence.
- In this case, if someone is trying to persuade a mother to let them get a tattoo with using ethos, person can say something like this: ''<u>I want a tattoo</u> because<u> I personally think</u> that they are beautiful and my tattoo will have message that is meaningful to me. <u>This is my decision</u> and i honestly think that it would make me happy because I want it for a long time.''
Besides ethos, there are also, pathos and logos.
