    The history of language study illustrates widely divergent attitudes concerning the relationship between writing and speech. Written language was the medium of literature, and, thus, a source of standards of linguistic excellence. It was felt to provide language with permanence and authority. The rules of grammar were, accordingly, illustrated exclusively from written texts.

    The everyday spoken language, by contrast, was ignored or condemned as an object unworthy of study, demonstrating only lack of care and organization. It was said to have no rules, and speakers were left under the illusion that, in order to “speak properly”, it was necessary to follow the “correct” norms, as laid down in the recognized grammar books and manuals of written style.

    There was sporadic criticism of this viewpoint throughout the 19^th century, but it was not until the 20^th century that an alternative approach became widespread. This approach pointed out that speech is many thousands of years older than writing; that it develops naturally in children (whereas writing has to be artificially taught); and that writing systems are derivative — mostly based on sounds of speech.

  The predominance of written language was unquestioned until the 20th century.

  O predomínio da linguagem escrita era inquestionável até o século 20

  There was sporadic criticism of this viewpoint throughout the 19th century, but it was not until the 20th century that an alternative approach became widespread. This approach pointed out that speech is many thousands of years older than writing; that it develops naturally in children (whereas writing has to be artificially taught); and that writing systems are derivative — mostly based on sounds of speech.

  Houve críticas esporádicas a esse ponto de vista ao longo do século 19, mas foi só no século 20 que uma abordagem alternativa se espalhou. Essa abordagem mostrou que a fala é muitos milhares de anos mais velha do que a escrita; que se desenvolve naturalmente nas crianças (enquanto a escrita tem que ser ensinada artificialmente); e que os sistemas de escrita são derivados - principalmente baseados em sons da fala

• Errei por conta do inquestionável.

• O erro está no 'inquestionável', pois nota-se que ainda havia algumas críticas: " There was sporadic criticism of this viewpoint throughout the 19th century...".

  "Houve críticas esporádicas a esse ponto de vista ao longo do século 19..."

• Acertei por conta da diferença na numeração, vale? kkk
