A British study has found that goats have accents like human. And goats’ accents change as they grow older and move in different groups.
英国一项研究发现山羊跟人类一样带有口音，而且随着年龄的增长和环境的变化，它们的口音会改变。
The researchers, from Queen Mary, University of London, followed four separate herds of baby goats, recording them with a hidden microphone. At first, the baby goats stayed with their parents and siblings and copied their sounds. But as they grew older and formed social groups with their peers--their voices became more uniform.
伦敦大学玛丽皇后学院的研究人员分别跟踪观察了4群山羊幼崽，并用窃听器将它们的声音录制下来。起初，这些小山羊与自己的父母和兄弟姐妹一起生活，模仿家人的口音。可是随着它们不断长大，开始与“同龄羊”一起过群居生活时，它们的声音又会跟“同龄羊”保持一致。作者: kobe 时间: 2012-11-5 19:55
