the problem with that is, do animals even have language? you can't translate a sound that doesn't really mean anything

some animals seem to, I've seen findings that some bats have a few dozen sounds that appear to have definite meanings and will even use the sounds differently between familiar and unfamiliar bats. It might not be true language but it could be the foundation of one

I always been under the assumption that most mammal and avian species communicate vocally. There are lots of inflection tones between when dogs: Bark, whimper, whine, howl, snarl, etc; or when Cats: mewl, hiss, growl, purr, etc. Birds definitely have several calls for warning, gathering, mating, food sightings also

yes, but i figured it would be akin to a polyvalent word. the word itself doesn't mean anything, but the entonations and how you express it in tells you what is the intended message. i know for a fact dogs and cats can recognize certain words the owners use. so you'd think if they had a translatable language, someone would have figured out a dogtionaire by now

The hotel translates the meaning rather than sounds and grammar. I thought the gist of what we are trying to say to smell for example, and he wouldn't suffer from olfactory white room torture like when the halls cleaned up his piss. He was already trying to guess by the tone of voice. Body language differences like not jumping on humans in greeting and eye contact doesn't mean they want to fight, human biology, emotions and social dynamics, so he wouldn't try to eat grapes or chocolate to fit in or come to us for help if he gets injured. And how a conscious human mind can be helpful or what to do when the bull-man gets a panic attack or a mentally ill human comes in.
