Dear friends, I've always wondered what language dogs speak. My dog is a she. She seems to understand some Portuguese, English, Spanish and even some French. She's undoubtlessly a polyglot.
All the barking might have a meaning I suppose. My dog understands that all words with 'inha' suffix is good to her, even though the word may not be that good. My mom taught her 'bonitinha' Portuguese for 'cute' and every time I call her 'feinha' (very ugly) or 'nojentinha' (disgusting), she likes it just because it ends with 'inha'. And I also call her 'cadela' (ambiguous meaning : both 'bitch' and 'female dog' in Portuguese) and she never knows the real meaning. I have so much fun! Of course any word that I speak with a deep voice, she gets nervous. I love my dog. She's 16 year old. Most of my life I've spent with her. Do you have any interesting story or speculation on what language dogs speak?
