Discussion could a dog be trained to communicate human words?

[AutistSupremacist]

Given that dogs can very much understand orders and bark when they are trying to tell you something, surely it would be possible to teach it some words like "hello" or "bye". I sometimes try to teach my dog a word by doing what parents do to babies by whispering it to the dog and hoping she will say it back.

no

no

Are you sure? it seems they have almost grasped it but just can't make the final step to saying a word.

Are you sure?

yes

I think they can, but they could never fully understand language as the intellect of a dog and a human is very different.

Chinese room argument. The dog doesn't know what the word means, only knows that it will get something if he says it.

this would be good because you can have a dog friend you can talk to easier
