They are beginning to understand that man is different from animals because he can speak. Animals cannot speak. They make noise when they are afraid or angry, unhappy. Apes (猿) can understand more quickly than people. One or two of them have learnt a few words. But they cannot join words to make sentences. They cannot think like us because they have no language.
