Abstract

In this paper, I have tested my theory which states that animals may react specifically to a word only if they are trained to recognize the sound. I tested this theory by investigating a dog’s ability to comprehend words. I also researched a parrot’s ability to speak as there is more to that than just having the ability to speak and converse regularly. These two organisms give us an insight into the entire animal kingdom and help test the theory entirely, this is also proven by the difference between humans and animals language comprehension skills being chalked up to the difference between logic and specific cerebral function vs recognition and imitation.
