Oooh. Have you heard of that indigenous language that is the only one in the world that doesn't have a grammar structure that requires words? So it can be spoken, or whistled with the same functionality. It's stupid difficult to learn, but the thought of carrying entire conversations via whistling is incredibly intriguing to me.
I heard about it in an college anthropology class, and its been something I've marveled at occasionally ever since.
