One way to teach your parrot new words is through a process called 'keyboarding.' Start by showing the bird a word on a screen or in writing and playing recorded speech of someone saying the word. Then you can use food reinforcement to prompt the parrot to repeat the sound whenever it clicks or keys a letter on a keyboard that corresponds with the sound of that word. Continue this process until the parrot is able to repeat all of the sounds in the word accurately. Additionally, you can also use positive reinforcement such as verbal praise and treats when your parrot successfully repeats words that you have taught it!

Teaching your parrot new words is a fun and rewarding experience. You can start by choosing simple words and using sign language to teach them. Additionally, you can incorporate objects related to the word into your teaching sessions, as visuals often help birds better comprehend new vocabulary. Furthermore, you can try playing audio recordings of the word you’re teaching or even use a tapping system that rewards it when it repeats the sound correctly. By having patience and consistently reinforcing its learning process with treats and praise, your pet bird will be speaking a few sentences in no time!
