Nonverbal communication
For generations, countless tribes have practiced nonverbal communications. These included gestures, drawings, and many others. Through the evolving nature of tribes, there are countless related ways of non verbal communication at our disposal. Tribes have evolved from the use of smoke, fire, and sun. Artist, including performers, communicate through their work.
Verbal communication
Verbal communication requires certain rules to become effective. Over the years these rules have changed. Examples of this may be seen in the ancient languages. The labels used to represent meaning changed with the needs of the tribe. Through the nature of tribes, changes have impacted these languages. Several romantic languages came from Latin. Writers and poets not only use words for sounds but also to produce images. The evidence of changes is evident in their work.

When stating that change is evident in verbal communications, is it really the meaning of the context of the spoken word or merely the words in which we speak?
If you look at Shakespeare’s example of the spoken word, isn't "Doth that" and "Yo" in the same context - really the same? Haven't we just morphed into a slang that is inevitably the same as the beautifully written works of the 17th century?
That may be one example. In certain instances, I would agree with you.
