A fundamental principle of language is that:
 
  a. The more phonemes a language has, the more different ideas can be expressed in it.
  b. The more material goods a culture has, the more talkative its members will be.
  c. Oppressed groups rarely contribute words to the language of their oppressors.
  d. Language always reflects the history of those who use it.
  e. The more primitive a culture, the more likely its members are to be dependent on senses such as smell and hearing rather than language.
