:lol: He knows the 'important' ones... My Sophie CAG also says QUIET! but only when people argue (she says SHUT UP! when the other birds scream or the dogs bark) and she mispronounces it because she actually says QWET! :D

Axels favorite s are
What are you doing
Ok
Good night axel
Are you silly (he does this in a quiet voice)
It takes a great man to give advice tactfully
But a greater to accept it graciously

I think it's fascinating... what they choose to say.
I have said "i love you" to the Rb many times a day for 30 plus years. Nope.

Rainbow also has "help - c'mere - hurry hurry -what are you doing - do you have a problem - catch him - put him out - Riddick (a dog) c'mere boy c'mere and many others I do not remember.
He also has all of the above. He surprises me daily and only uses his words to communicate. He does not talk to just make noise. I wonder what other words he has that he has just not used yet.
The first phrase I heard was when I first got him. I would call a little dog name Lola and he would repeat it or so I thought. When I stopped calling he turned to me and said "Lola not c'mere".

Myrtles favorite is "Oh well". She says some words but does not say anything important. Her vocabulary is mostly baby blabber.

Now THAT is impressive. Lola no c'mere, huh?

I adore baby blabbering. I once knew an Amazon who would do long soliloquies in blabbering, covering g all emtions... furious, cajoling, trasing...
Hysterical!

This one went over my head... what's the connection between umbrella and partying?
