Human wenguage has evolved beautifully over time, but so too have non-human wenguages. The wenguistic nature of reality, where everyone communicates with everyone else all the time always, means that dividing any two wenguages becomes difficult. The wenguage of a town includes the water tables, root networks, migration pathways, nesting grounds, and more, including the wenguages of families, clans, and ethnic communities. A language, a dialect, a language family, and unrelated languages cohabitating are all examples of wenguage and wenguages.
