Do parrots really talk? As the title suggests, thank you

The secret of why parrots can talk lies in its special physiological structure——— its singing tube and tongue. Although they can speak, the voice of the parrot is different from the vocal cords of humans, and the voice of the parrot is called the tube, which is located at the junction of the trachea and the bronchi, and is composed of three pairs of deformed bronchi adjacent to the left and right of the 3 6 tracheas in the lowest part after the trachea is distended and deformed. Ordinary birds are able to produce sounds of different frequencies and heights, because when the air enters the tube, it makes different sounds with the vibration of the wall of the tube.

In addition to the most basic bird characteristics, the vocal organ of the parrot is more complete than that of ordinary birds, and there are four or five pairs of special muscles ——— the vocal muscles that regulate the diameter, sound rate and tension of the singing tube, and under the control of the nervous system, the vocal muscles contract or relax and make a chirping sound. In terms of the structure of the whole vocal tube, the vocal tube is also very similar to the structure of the human vocal cords, except that the human vocal cords are 20 cm from the throat to the end of the tongue, at a right angle, while the parrot's vocal tube is 15 cm from the tongue segment, which is an obtuse angle of approximately right angle. And this angle is the key to determining the syllables and tones of pronunciation, the closer to the right angle, the stronger the sense of syllables and tones of the voice, so that parrots can produce intonation sounds and syllables like humans.

Speaking of the tongue, the tongue of the parrot is very developed, smooth and plump, and the shape is very similar to that of the human tongue, and it is precisely because of such standard vocal conditions that the parrot can produce some simple but accurate and clear syllables.

Parrots are also divided into breeds Not all parrots can talk The main species of birds that can talk after training are Starlings: starlings, wrens; Crows: red-billed choy, jay; Parrotidae: Large-breasted parrots, sunflower parrots, grey parrots.

Of course they can talk, but not all parrots do. It's something you've learned.

Parrots can talk.

In fact, imitating sounds is a characteristic of parrots, some varieties of parrots such as gray parrots have a strong ability to imitate human voices, while some parrots like to imitate whistles. Of course, there are also breeds of parrots that have a very average ability to imitate sounds.

Whether a parrot can speak or not depends on the tendency of the parrot to imitate sounds and the method of training. Not all parrots can speak, in fact, all parrots have the ability to imitate sounds, but not all parrots have this desire to imitate.

The principles that parrots are taught to speak.

1. Avoid being overly complicated, and the trainer only makes one sound at a time. Once the parrot makes this sound as prompted, try to teach the next one.

2. When you hear a parrot correctly mimicking your voice, send out some kind of signal to say yes. If the parrot understands and is sure, it will be very useful for future imitation training, even if you are far away from the parrot, you can communicate with it.

3. Provide appropriate rewards in training.

4. Use specific signals to prompt parrot pronunciation.

5. When the parrot often makes imitation sounds, you can insert some cues before it pronounces it, and if the parrot just pronounces it after the cue, give it a reward immediately.

6. After mastering the above steps. The parrot no longer rewards it for pronouncing it, and only when it pronounces it as prompted.

Everyone has seen parrot scholars talking, whether in real life or on TV. When someone comes, they will say "hello, hello", and some parrots can even sing and recite poems, don't you think it's amazing?

Parrots are said to have an IQ of 65, which is as smart as a human five-year-old. Parrots can speak, which is inseparable from their natural intelligence, spirituality, and the training of their owners. They learn to speak without knowing what it means, but simply imitating sounds, or "sounds."

This has something to do with the structure of their mouths and their tongues, which have large mouths, soft and thick tongues, and a lot of meat.

At the intersection of the two bronchial tubes is the sound tube, which is the sounder. The muscles on the tube are well developed, and when air passes through the tube, it is easy to make sound. Their external vocal muscles can change the shape of the vocal tube and can be trained to mimic human speech.

As long as the owner trains the parrot repeatedly on a daily basis, it will remember these sounds, so under certain circumstances, it will be able to speak in its mouth. Guys, do you think parrots are amazing?

EMM has the ability to imitate, and when we were young, we were also imitating the people around us to speak.

They certainly have their own minds, but most of them are just imitations and don't fully understand what they mean, but there are also people who can have conversations, and the only one I know is the African gray parrot. (And not all).

1. Parrots generally can't speak and need the education of their owners.

2. The owner can buy a repeater and often put the same sentence in the parrot's ear, it is possible to learn. For example, the chance of a tabby parrot to speak is very low, and the bird cannot speak without education. If you want to raise a talking parrot, breed selection and education are important.
