Chris: and why on Earth would you exclude the communication of plants etc. from
the broad meaning of "language"? (They don't have a blabbermouth).

I personally don’t, but probably most people would not think of this system of
communication as being a form of language…. Or at least that is what I thought;
maybe I am not giving most people enough credit.

Want to point out that important communication occurs in nature without what we
would commonly term language being used. For example, it appears there exists a
widespread intra & trans-species chemical based signaling system operating
amongst plants species (at least amongst those studied), where they are
communicating the presence of pathogens and predator species to other nearby
plants, in a fairly specific manner that seems to be “understood” by other
plants who respond to these specific chemical signals in a timely and
appropriate manner.
