MODERATORS
Saying that words didn't exist before we had writing of any kind is risible.
Writing, in the end, is intended to reflect speech, not the other way around. Writing as an invention (even in ur-forms like cave paintings) was intended to provide a way of recording speech in ways that allowed later use of it.
