Monkeys have accents too, researchers say ...LOL

so s'pore monkeys speak singlish lah ?

TOKYO (AFP) - To the untrained ear monkeys of a certain species may all sound the same, but Japanese researchers have found that, like human beings, they actually have an accent depending on where they live.

The finding, the first of its kind, will appear in the December edition of a German scientific journal Ethology to be published on December 5, the primate researchers said Tuesday.
"Differences between chattering by monkeys are like dialects of human beings," said Nobuo Masataka, professor of ethology at Kyoto University's Primate Research Institute.

The research team analyzed voice tones of two groups of the same species of primates, the Japanese Yakushima macaque also known as Macaca fuscata yakui, between 1990 and 2000.
One group was formed by 23 monkeys living on the southern Japanese island of Yakushima, and the other group comprised 30 descendants from the same tribe moved from the island to Mount Ohira, central Japan, in 1956.

The result showed that the island group had a tone about 110 hertz higher on average than the one taken to central Japan.

Monkeys on Yakushima Island have an accent with a higher tone because tall trees on the island tend to block their voice, Masataka said.
"On the other hand, monkeys on Mount Ohira do not have to gibber with a high tone as trees there are low," he said. "Each group adopted their own accent depending upon their environment."

This suggests differences in voice tones are not caused by genes, Masataka said, adding the results "may lead to a clue to the origin of human language."

Sometime I think the Opposition party is like the lousy EM3 student and the PAP is like the RI student (RI is stand for Raffle Instantuition).
The EM3 student try how hard also cannot win the RI student one. All the best teacher and all the best school building and all the best student is give to the RI school one. RI school how to fucking lose?EM3 student get 50 marks for exam, RI student will get 70 marks. EM3 student get 70 marks, RI student will get 100 marks. EM3 student get 100 marks, RI student will nabei get 110 marks!!!Then when sports contest time,
EM3 school send one sports champion , the RI genius school will send 5-man team. Sorry, this event only can 5-man team then you can join one. Your EM3 one-man show must go and fuck spider. Other school also don't have 5-man team, so walkover lor! Automatic win.

I must sincerly tell u that i love my country but then it jus sucks too badly from the inside .
