"Only humans use language"

This statement, currently in the second sentence of the article, is flatly incorrect. The article is not specific to human language. Even the improved statement "Only humans use human language" is no longer really correct in 2023. The term "language" in this article is a very big term, and absolutely should not be limited to only human language. And even if it was, the statement would still be incorrect.
