Whistled language

Man places both hands to his lips in a folded fashion in order to modify the sound of his labial whistle.
Those who are able to speak using whistled language often use their hands or fingers to modify the sound produced.

Whistled languages are linguistic systems that use whistling to emulate speech and facilitate communication between individuals. More than 80 languages have been found to practice various degrees of whistling, most of them in rugous topography or dense forests, where whistling expand the area of communication while movement to carry messages is challenging.[1] The practice is generally threaten by increased modernization and faster roads, but successful conservation efforts are recorded.[1]
