Now try that on my daughter or any other 3.5 year old. It doesnt work. :}

No, as another poster stated better, there are many things that cant be explained verbally, and need to be "experienced"  which is one of my big hangups about AGI in general.
  There is very little way to have an AI experience anything, and must generally be limited to the regions of text in - text out.  Which is fine on some levels, but a broad AGI will need all the other artifacts of life that only experience can teach.

Yellow is the state of reflecting light which is between two specific frequencies.
 
Hot is the state of having a temperature above some set value.
 
It takes examples to recognize/understand when your sensory apparatus is reporting one of these states but this is a calibration issue, not a learning issue.
 
Note also that hot has tremendously varying values (based upon individual and context) and that where yellow begins and ends is an artifact of the design of our visual systems.

I dont believe "yellow" or "hot" can either be learned verbally.

An unusual claim... do you mean all knowledge can be learned verbally, or do you think there are some kinds of knowledge that cannot be demonstrated verbally?
