1. Many dinosaurs have anatomical features interpreted to support specialized vocalization.
2. One branch of dinosaurs is directly ancestral to birds, and likely possessed brains organized similarly to birds.
3. Of all animals ever studied, babbler birds come closest to having a human like auditory language. Closer than possessed by any extent primate. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/20...152230.htm
This doesn’t prove any dinosaurs had language precursors. But if you were to ask me whether it is plausible that babbler like capability for language precursors may have existed in bird lineage all the way back to non-avian dinosaurs, I would say nothing rules it out.
Let me remind you of the OPs original claim:

Got it?
Hey, dinosaurs are people too!

The question is what level of communication sophistication are animals of that era capable of, and at what level of sophistication would we call the communication language.
LOL. They were animals with no capacity for language. Give it a rest.
When Donald trump, his spawns, senate republicans and fox talking heads have all been observed to mimic the use of language, how can you really be sure much more advanced quadrupeds like salamanders and dinosaurs won’t have the ability to actually use languages?
