Giraffes do make sounds. They make snorting and moaning sounds usually when there is danger. Hope this helps!

Also it is said Giraffes have a low frequency voice, and so people can't hear it clearly.

A giraffe does make a sound, actually more of an odd mix of a beep and a grunt. they don't make this sound very often, or very loudly. they will also make a more distinct sound, sort of like a cat when they need food, when they are scarred or being attacked, or something like that.

I hope this answered your question!

oh and p.s.: whales aren't supposed to make any sounds; but they do! why/how?

Is a giraffe dumb?

"Dumb" means that an animal (or person) is incapable of making sounds to communicate. Whilst giraffes are generally regarded as silent animals, they do make vocalisations in some situations, so they could not be regarded as "dumb". If the question refers to the intelligence level of giraffes: while they are not among the smartest of animals, they most certainly can learn and adapt their behaviour, which indicates that they are not stupid animals.
