It’s a fascinating topic although I’m not an expert in this area. However, a dear friend and a colleague of mine, Dr Catherine Perrodin, is an international expert on how animals – nonhuman primates (that is, monkeys) and other animals like mice – communicate with each other. One of the most important aspects of language in general is how do different individuals recognise each other. Here she’s done a lot of important work – nicely summarised in a review that is freely accessible here – https://www.cell.com/trends/cognitive-sciences/fulltext/S1364-6613(15)00226-0?_returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com%2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS1364661315002260%3Fshowall%3Dtrue .
