Parrots are vocal birds. They can grasp the sounds surrounding them and can learn by mimicking them.
Why do parrots talk? Research has shown that all vocal learner birds have a part in the brain called as “song system”. However, parrots bear two layers of the song system. The outer layer called “core” is common to all vocal learners, while the inner layer called “shell” is unique to parrots.
The shell has allowed parrots to be the best talkers and mimickers. Parrots mimic humans to make them fit in their human environment. The domesticated parrots have all the basic ingredients to be a good talker. These include spare time, repeated training sessions, inspiration, and the most important is the mental ability.
The question is, do parrots understand the words they say? Words can have an association with feelings for parrots, but not complex meaning
For parrots saying “Hello, how are you?” might means that someone is entering the room. It is because they have heard their owner saying so while entering the room, they are just mimicking them.
