This is to anyone who can enlighten me on what I have run across in
readings. D. Abercrombie and a couple others assume an understanding of
this a gestural origin of vocalizations. Is this like the 50's(?) theory
of speech evolution from cave men's involuntary grunts or an auditory
miming of a beckoning motion? Was this theory ever widely accepted? Is
it still? Thanks in advance.
