Wouldn’t it be lovely if your pet dog or cat could talk to you? Well, the fact is that though animals have voices, tongues, lips, teeth, and a nose
like we do, they can only make noises and not talk. Even when a parrot repeats things that you say, it is not talking. It is just copying the sounds that you make.The reason may be that only humans have a larynx or voice box that is slung low, so that it can resonate to produce something more than a grunt or a meow. It may also be that our brains are more evolved… in any case; the ability to communicate through speech makes human beings different from animals
