Which form of language; written, spoken, or body language; would be most effective to convince someone that the world is round? Explain.
Out of all different form of language (written, spoken, and body language), written would probably be the best to convinve a person that the earth was round. That way, I can just take a peice of paper, and draw out the world as a sphere, with recognizable continents on it.Of course, I could draw a generic map of the world as flat, and than draw a big “No” symbol over it.
Well, that probably won’t convince them all the way, so I might have to resort to just grabbing a basket ball and drawing the continents on it. I might have to resort to actually writing words, explaining that if the world was flat, you’d just fall off over the side! But, the most effective way would probably to use all three, but I think that it would be possible to get by either just one or two.

XD Slap Columbus on the hand when he points to the flat map.
