FALSE.

I believe otherwise. Animals have their own way of communicating as well, as they have their own language. What we define as language is simply a way to communicate, a way that everyone will understand. Similarly, various types of animals communicate to eachother fairly well.

I was going to say false because animals communicate using their own language but if you answer this according to the definition of language, then I would say true.
The definition of language is "the method of human communication, either spoken or written, consisting of the use of words in a structured and conventional way.

So I feel like the answer would be true.
