Language is not specific only to human beings. Some animals, such as dolphins, apes, and birds, have been shown to have their own forms of communication that exhibit elements of language, such as syntax and semantics. However, human language is unique in its complexity and the range of meanings that can be expressed.

If we consider written language and the phenomenon of sign language, it can be seen that sound systems are not the only language systems. "A language", with an article (a, the, this, etc.) attached refers to one specific communication system or group of systems, such as a Romance language, a phonetic language, the English language, or this legal language.
