Good morning. I'm Leila Fadel. Mushrooms - they keep to themselves, don't move around, don't prey on others, but they might just talk. A scientist at the University of the West of England inserted tiny electrodes into four species of fungi and discovered that shrooms seem to use electrical impulses to communicate internally, say, about food or an injury. The impulse clusters are so intricate, they actually resemble words. A mushroom's vocabulary - about 50 words. It's MORNING EDITION.

早上好我是莱拉·法德尔。蘑菇——它们自己守着，不走动，不捕食别人，但它们可能只是说话。英国西部大学的一位科学家将微型电极插入四种真菌中，发现蘑菇似乎利用电脉冲在内部交流，比如食物或伤害。冲动簇是如此复杂，它们实际上像单词。蘑菇的词汇-大约50个单词。这是早晨版。
