Languages

I found out another interesting fact on language or more communication as a whole. There are people in chile I believe, that have made a whole language around whistling. Their whistling method consists of not only change of tone but pauses are a part of the language as well. Though they have made this new language and way of communication they know Spanish as well. This man was sent in to learn more about these people and their language. He asked them why they even wanted or why they had to make this new language. They explained that this form of communication was the most useful for them and was one of the only ways to communicate clearly in the hill surrounded area. They live on a mountain with lots of echoes so they believed it to be harder to hear a lower toned sentence than a higher pitch more obvious systematic rhythm that can be heard from the top of the mountain to the bottom.
