Talking about the Tongue – Part 3
We have discussed how the tongue is essential for swallowing and digestion and how fossil evidence for tongue evolution is lacking. We reviewed how the tongue plays a critical role in vocalization. Now, I’d like to consider some of the amazing tongues that God created...
