Human Language vs Animal Language, Bee communicates with others by dancing…
-
Bee communicates with others by dancing. Depending on the orientation of the dance on the wall of hive, the bees know which direction from the sun to fly and how far to fly.
-
The bird's communication system uses both vocalisations and visualisations. Vocalization is above all a form of communication between birds. Bird calls are made up of single notes or short sequences of notes. example, birds employ calls during flight to keep the flock together and to signal takeoff and landing.
-
People may refer to periods of the past and of the future. It helps users of the language to address issues and activities that are not present in the immediate environment. We might say "I went to China in the summer" for humans, but a cat will never say "I went last night to a friend's house." That is, human contact is not time- and space-limited.
-
No "ordinary" relation between a linguistic form and its significance. For example, there is no logical explanation to justify why it is called "dog" in English, "gou" in Chinese, and "hund" in German, a four legged domestic animal making "woof" sound. The relation between the sound and the sense is entirely random.
-
Humans are continually creating new expressions and novel utterances by manipulating their linguistic resources to describe new objects and situations.
-
Process whereby a language is passed on from one generation to the next is described as cultural transmission. It is clear human beings are born with the biological organs that can help them to produce speech sounds, they still have to acquire a language from the people around them.
-
The dolphin and whale communication mechanisms are complex and silent, similar in their roles to those of birds. If a dolphin is injured, it can signal other dolphins to come and provide help by raising the injured one out of the water so it can breathe.
Human language is arranged simultaneously on two levels or on two layers. That property is known as duality. We have a physical level in speech production at which we can produce individual sounds, like n, b and i.
