A BIT MORE ABOUT DOLPHINS

Postby HERMINIA » Sun May 02, 2010 5:23 pm

Aberdeen University (Scotland) and University of Catalonia have been working , in separate groups, leading an investigation project in order to study the language codes used by dolphins to comunicate between them.
They both conclude their studies saying that dolphins actually are using codes similars to the human language. Catalan scientists added that they comunicate mainly with a sort of "body language", very similar to that used by human beings in their ordinary lives. Dolphins use short signs in their speaking loanguage as the humans do.

It is incredible but true, marine mammals have a language with structured grammar, and that varies according to species and location.
Maybe they can end up learning English like us.
In this site is given details of the discovery.

I see that marine mammals speak like humans do: different grammar according to location. Will they know where other dolphins come from just for their dialect?
