    Honestly some of the most exciting research I've heard about in quite some time!

    The English langue only has 26 letters in its alphabet. Whales have a presumed 30. As we know a lot can be said even with that limitation. Furthermore the clicks could (be/are) like morse code. What a wonderful Enigma all living creatures are.

    The extra click is from the Canadian whales "A". Listen carefully and you can hear them humming Gordon Lightfoot.

    The extra click must be "Um", "So", "Ah" or they just curse a lot.

    Maybe the extra click is negation. Like "food here not".

    You wonder how many warnings the whales have added from all the dangers of humans

    Awesome job amazing but try to see if you can make the data open source as possible so people can create alarms for whales to get the hell out of the way when a boat's coming by in 6 years

    Super exciting research. Whales have been around as long as us so I wouldn't be surprised if they have actual language. These creatures stay in tight groups their entire lives and have lots of down time to talk.

      I belive whales are a lot older than us, homo sapiens and even older than any other homo
