Summary:
- Researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel have discovered that dogs can learn words in a similar way to young children.
- By observing dogs listening to conversations, the researchers found that the dogs were able to pick up on the meanings of new words, just like toddlers learning their first language.
- This study suggests that dogs have a remarkable ability to learn language, and that they may be able to understand more of what we say than we previously thought.
