Please watch the following videos and reading pg. 146-153 of Cultural Landscape for the questions below, thanks!

1. What forms of power would have moved boats 2,000 years ago?

2. Based on Figure 5-3, which four other languages with at least 5 million speakers belong to the same language family, branch, and group as English?

3. Sino-Tibetan is the second-most widely used language family, but it appears on Figure 5-6 to encompass a smaller land area than several other language families. Why is this the case?

4. Most languages are named for regions or countries. For example, based on their names, how would you expect the distribution of Austronesian and Austro-Asiatic to differ?
