This means basically, that they lack structure. They lack the kind of structure that enables us to divide a human utterance into words. We can change an utterance by replacing one word in it with another. A good illustration of this is a soldier who can say, e.g, “tanks approaching from the north”; but a bird has a single alarm cry, which means “danger!” This is why the number of signals that an animal can make is very limited: the great tit is a case in point; it has about twenty different calls. On the other hand, in human language the number of possible utterances is infinite. It also explains why animal cries are very general in meaning.
