Decipher the mysterious language of dolphins

For a long time, dolphins have always attracted the attention of scientists worldwide. They try to decipher many mysteries about the behavior and language of this strange animal.

Dolphins communicate and absorb information from the surrounding environment thanks to the support of sound.

Experts from the Saint Peterburg Institute of Physiological and Biochemical Evolution in Russia focused on sound signals that dolphins often emit and receive.

Biologist Kira Zaitseva leads the bio sound research group at Saint Peterburg's Institute of Physiological and Biochemical Evolution, Sechenov, which notes that the characteristics of dolphins are good sound systems.

Under the water, this animal's vision is limited to about 8-20 meters, so if humans have vision, dolphins in the water have quite sensitive hearing. That is, with the help of sound, dolphins can distinguish other objects in appearance, material, size, near distance .

The audio signal frequency range in dolphins is much higher than in humans. If the communication sound of the person is in the range of about 20 kHz (while the musicians can reach 40 kHz), then in dolphins up to 300 kHz.

Currently, scientists have identified 186 'whistles' in the 'story' of dolphins. The whistling sounds divided into 5 steps, each level will meet the special action of this sea animal.

In dolphins, there is a level of human sound - 6 levels, ie language, syllable, word, sentence, paragraph, circuit. Dolphins also have their own dialect. The dolphins are very open, polite, friendly, living around each family.

Kira Zaitseva said in the Black Sea region there are 3 types of dolphins live: Azov dolphins, white dolphins and Afalina dolphins. Russian scientists are conducting basic studies with Afalina dolphins.

These fish are easier to teach, withstand the conditions of coercion. There are also many studies that have been done with Azov dolphins.

In the Far East and northern waters of Russia, there is a very large white dolphin, capable of swimming for many hours under the sea ice, so they also have different characteristics of the internal system. It is both visual, auditory and deep diving.

There are many mysteries related to the language and behavior of dolphins awaiting the discovery of the decoding of the scientific world, not only from the bio sound experts, but also of physicists and mathematicians. learning and linguistics.
