新奇事件簿 海豚语言或许有语法存在
Humans may not be the only ones to use grammar and vocabulary to speak and communicate. Scientists believe dolphins also use words and sentences to speak to each other. We have known for a long time that dolphins can communicate. New research suggests that this communication is similar to the conversations humans have. Scientists say the clicks, whistles and other sounds that dolphins make appear to be sentences that let the sea creatures send messages to each other. The dolphins use their language to identify themselves, have relations with other dolphins, and do things together. Scientists say that one day, we may be able to understand dolphin language and talk to dolphins.
或许不仅仅是人类使用语法和词汇来说话和沟通。科学家相信海豚也用词语和句子来互相说话。长期以来，我们知道海豚之间可以交流。新的研究表明，这种交流与人类的对话类似。科学家表示，海豚发出的吸气声，口哨声和其他声音可能是让海洋生物相互之间传递信息的句子。海豚利用他们的语言来互相辨别，与其他海豚产生联系，一起做某些事情。科学家表示，或许有一天，我们能够理解海豚的语言，与海豚说话。
Researchers at the Karadag Nature Reserve in Crimea made the discovery that dolphins had their own language after recording two Black Sea bottlenose dolphins. The dolphins were named Yasha and Yana. The scientists noticed that one dolphin listened to what the other was saying and then replied. Lead researcher Dr Vyacheslav Ryabov said: "This exchange resembles a conversation between two people." He added: "This language exhibits all the design features present in the human spoken language. This indicates a high level of intelligence and consciousness in dolphins." Dr Ryabov said the dolphins' language is, "a highly developed spoken language, like the human language."
克里米亚卡拉达格自然生态保护区的研究人员记录了黑海两只宽吻海豚之后发现海豚有自己的语言。这两只海豚名叫亚沙(Yasha)和雅纳(Yana)。科学家注意到一只海豚倾听另外一只海豚在说什么，然后会回应。首席研究人员Vyacheslav Ryabov博士表示：“这种交流类似两个人之间的对话。”他补充说：“这种语言表现出人类语言所呈现的所有结构特点。这表明海豚也拥有高水平的智慧意识。”Ryabov博士表示，海豚的语言是一种“高度发展的可以说的语言，就像人类语言一样。”
