This connection eventually reaches to the point that the woodpeckers realize that the oral language, the language produced by articulate sounds, is only one form of communication. There is another form of language which is named sign language and is produced with the hands and the face or even with different kinds of signs or shapes. In this story, when the woodpeckers communicate with those two deaf children with the use of their feathers, sign language is born. |
