Since the town of Kuşköy is a farming village with a deep valley, whistling can travel significantly further and be more audible than just yelling.
This class teaches students the techniques of kuş dili as well as the anatomy of the mouth and teeth needed to perform this language.
This suggests that the complexity of whistled language comprehension is reliant on equal activation of both the right and left hemispheres of the brain.
[6] Every year since 1997, Kuşköy has held a communal based bird language, culture and art festival (tr: "Kuş Dili Kültür ve Sanat Festivali"), where the community comes together.
[8] Unlike kuş dili in Kuşköy, the local government has included it in the mandatory education system of the island.
As this language is primarily used for farming in deep valleys, the growing popularity and availability of cellphones has caused its use to decline.
