Read this article-The Tower of Babel

Perhaps this will help, but everyone has their own opinion about it. You don't have to necesarrily agree with me.

Yep....you are ok !!!!! - sgarcia3, May 21, 2013
for me it's the only good explanation that there is to answer that question ;) I've read a number of papers on the subject and linguists can trace and comment on how language has changed and evolved but that initial 'where did the languages come from) - Kiwi-Girl, May 21, 2013
never seems to get answered. - Kiwi-Girl, May 21, 2013

As was already mentioned, we are not hear to do your homework for you. I agree with the comment about starting will Google. There are plenty of resources out there on the development of language throughout human history. I would, of course, avoid the links to the Tower of Babel myth if you are looking to get a decent grade on your paper.

That question is way beyond the scope of this forum, LOL. You may want to try Google instead.
