Preferred term

animal language  

Definition(s)

  • Work in animal behavior, and in particular cognitive ethology, has shown that most of the differences in kind once thought to distinguish humans from other animals are actually differences in degree. The one behavior where a huge gap still seems to exist is language. [Source: Encyclopedia of Anthropology; Language, Animal]
