Why are some words, like “mama and papa”, similar in many languages?
In: Other
Apparently it has to do with the fact that M and P are two of the easiest phonemes the human mouth can produce, as well as the phonem A. That make both of those words two of the easiest sound combinations a human baby can pronounce, therefore, really common words that, being some of the first said at such an early age, can be related to parenthood.
