What are the three types of language described?

• A. Natural language, Artificial Language, Computer language
• B. Natural language, Sign language, Body language
• C. Formal language, Programming language, Body language
• D. Verbal language, Nonverbal language, Visual language

Answer: (A)

Languages are categorized by how they come to be and what they’re used for. Natural language develops organically within communities for everyday communication, evolving over time with culture and context. Artificial language is created on purpose to serve specific aims, often with carefully designed rules to reduce ambiguity or to facilitate international or logical use. Computer language, a subset of artificial language, is built specifically to instruct machines and requires precise syntax and semantics so a computer can interpret it exactly.

This trio best fits the idea of three distinct language types: human languages that emerge naturally, purpose-built constructed languages, and the formal languages used to program computers. The other options mix modalities or broader communication forms (like body or visual cues) or blend concepts in a way that doesn’t align with the standard way language types are described.
