ANSWER
1. 1). Human language may not be completely "arbitrary". Some research has shown that
almost all humans naturally demonstrate limited crossmodal perception.
Animal language in the wild chimpanzees have been seen "talking" to each other, when
warning about approaching danger.
For example: if one chimpanzee sees a snake, he makes a low, rumbling noise, signalling
for all the other chimps to climb into nearby trees. In this case, the chimpanzees'
communication is entirely contained to an observable event, demonstrating a lack of
displacement.
