Smartest Fish on Earth, Mormyridae, Seem To Talk Just Like Us

This is surprising. A fish that not only talks but is reckoned to be pretty smart. When this fish pauses, it signals that the next thing it says is worth listening to. On my faculty, you don’t stop because that means somebody else will immediately start talking, if they haven’t already interrupted you. Everyone should just wait patiently while I gather my thoughts.
