How did people who speak different languages communicate in the past if language barrier is a thing even now?
In: 107
People in ancient times would speak more languages far more often than we do now. So a Greek would speak Aramaic. and Egyptian. So if you met someone who did not speak your native tongue you would find a common language and converse. Then as time went on you would educate someone in your language and vice versa. Or simply continue in one single language, which is why we have dead languages.
