Excellent comparison of the pharynx of a chimpanzee, neanderthal, and homo sapiens [8]. Bee-dance signaling, wolf howl studies, cetacean songs and whistles, and Bonobo Washoe and Sarah using sentences (at a 4 year old human plateau). Feral children. Acquisition stages: From babbling (c4mth)through holophrastic (c12mth - "allgone"), telegraphic (sentences without pronouns, tense, or conjunctions), to recursive (3 yrs, capable of folding in new forms and words).
