Think about this. If an alien came to earth and ran into a human don't you think he will assume that we all have one language. If we were to go to another planet and find a whole new world with aliens on it, and we ran into one and started tryint to communicate with it, wouldn't we assume that is there only language. dogs have there own language, cats have there own language. isnt it wierd tha we have so many, and yet were the same species?

Dogs and cats don't have language like people do. If you pinched a guy in Taiwan, he'd shreek. If you pushed a drunk German, he'd yell at you. You would understand that one guy was in pain and the other was angry, and this is about the level that animals can communicate, and, hey, we can understand when animals are happy, angry, etc. fairly well too, and, lo and behold, a dog can tell when you're angry at it or happy with it as well, go figure.
Anyway, if whoever finds these theoretical aliens is smart enough, I'm sure they'd know that if the aliens have any kind of true language, like humans, that there'd be regional dialects of it at the least.

totally
makes me think of the recordings they put on the Voyager space craft.
They
"recorded messages from populations all over the globe, each representative speaking in the language of his or her people, instead of sending greetings in one or two languages accompanied by keys for their decipherment. We were aware that the latter alternative might have given the extraterrestrials a better chance of understanding the words precisely, though it would have raised the thorny question of which two languages to send. We felt it was fitting that Voyager greet the universe as a representative of one community, albeit a complex one consisting of many parts."

English, they learned it from I Love Lucy programs that were beamed into space in the sixties. Everytime they get to Earth and go "Hey Luthy, I'm Home" it just cracks me up.
White, is that close to being a Pink?

You make a good point. People generally think that aliens are smarter than us and would just come to earth and already know English and would for some reason, come to America. Who knows. I think that if they exist that they would have come already. Here's a crazy thought. Maybe WE are the aliens and they aren't? But I'd say gibberish dude.

On Star Trek they have a translator. Computers are doing that now for we humans. By the way, I understand my dogs when they want to tell me that it's time to eat, they want to go out, someone's outside we know, or someone's outside we don't know or trust.

There is no such thing as white. When you fill out any kind of application they do not ask what color you are. Red, white, blue, orange etc. etc. just to get that straight right now also.

They probably speak dolphin and bird. They can probably learn any language we have, when among us- just like the mermaid did in the movie, "Mermaid".
