I have conversations with my cats all the time and I honestly think he understands at least 70% of it. they have great inflection and comedic timing.
They most definitely do. My boy “answers” questions when using the right inflection, every time. Apart from that, I pour my heart out to them. They’re the best listeners in the world, and they keep you warm to boot.
I talk to cats as well. They may not understand everything you say, but they know that your talking specifically to them and they can understand some things like praise or rebukement by tone and inflection. They also probably pick up common words, and they regularly talk back when you pause for a response. They’re living, thinking beings that operate at a higher level than many people realize.
I’m convinced that humans are so good at communicating/language that other animals can definitely figure out meanings and some words.
Sadly no other animal seems to have the same talent we do.
It’s probably not a stretch to say that our aptitude at language is a major major part for our evolutionary success. It was probably bound to happen that one among the first few species that got as good at language as we are, would eventually dominate the world
Reminds me of watching tv shows when I don’t understand the language. I still watch original VA + subtitle because the emotions conveyed in the voice is irreplacible. I don’t under the voice, but I can feel the voice.
