Yep. Language is one of the defining characters of our species, and it's good to use it well. Better than my friend Allison's lorikeet Ned does, anyway... :-) (Who does know the names of at least three people, and demonstrates some funny connections in his bird brain - he used to be punished with a water pistol, and when Allison's brother's dog was being told off for being too close to Ned's cage, Ned joined in with "No! No!" and then a perfect rendition of a "squirt squirt squirt" noise...). > > Neither did this correction. Cool. Can I offend you now then? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?
