Perfect pitch = the ability to recognize a note just from hearing it. For example, if you played the first note of a song, a person with perfect pitch would be able to tell you what the note was, even if they hadn’t heard the song before.
Relative pitch = the ability to recognize intervals between notes. For example, if you played the first note of a song, a person with good relative pitch who already knew the song would be able to sing the rest of the song pretty accurately, even though they don’t know the exact notes they are singing. This is because they know how much to go up or down from the previous note.

People will be all like “Neanderthals were wiped out 😔 idk how tho” and I don’t either, obviously, but I do know that some of my Homo sapiens sapiens ancestors were sucking and fucking Neanderthals who were also some of my ancestors and I feel like it’s a bit of a disservice to great great grandparents Neanderthal. There might no longer be pure Neanderthals or even mostly Neanderthal hybrids, but my (several hundred at least) great grandparents were Neanderthals and Homo sapiens who were sucking and fucking each other and I for one don’t forgor that. This one goes out to you grandma eyebrows *goes crazy on a bone or reed flute*
