For example, a monkey species might have a specific warning call that corresponds to a particular predator,like a snake but with language, there are countless ways to say atch out for the snake.So far no animal communication seems to have the open-endedness of human language.We don't know for sure what going on in animals's heads,and it's possible this definition of language,or our ways of measuring it,don apply to them.But as far as we know, only humans have language.And while humans speak around 7,000 distinct languages,any child can learn any language,indicating that the biological machinery underlying language is common to all of us.
