      Hi meg!
      Dolphins actually speak to each other and communicate through lots of different pitched noises and clicks. They also enjoy singing just for the sake of it, and are very clever and sociable animals. They may be asking why we make so many sounds too!
      Here’s one trying to speak to a human!
