ding-dong theory
The name of one of the speculative theories about the origins of LANGUAGE; it argues that SPEECH arose because people reacted to the stimuli in the world around them, and spontaneously produced sounds (‘oral gestures’) which in some way reflected the environment. The main evidence is the use of SOUND-SYMBOLISM (which is, however, very limited in a language). The theory has also been called the ta-ta theory – a sceptical reference to the claim that the way the tongue moves while saying the words ta-ta reflects the physical act of waving goodbye. The term has no standing in contemporary LINGUISTICS.
