鹩哥

You don';t want to encourage a mynah to whistle for it can become quite annoying, and it can be ear-piercing.

如果你的鹩哥可以出笼站在你的手上，你一定要利用这个机会进行对话练习。

I had not hand fed a baby mynah before. With proper instruction, I did very well.

在喂鹩哥宝宝之前，伴以合适的指令，我觉得这样很好。

A mynah can still be an enjoyable pet even if it chooses not to speak words or phrases.

一只不说话的鹩哥依然是令人喜爱的宠物。

If you be observant, you may find the whistles are justified - well, at least to the mynah they are.

如果你能留心这些，鹩哥的啸叫可以调整好到最少。

The older a mynah is that hasn';t been trained to speak words, the harder it is to get one to do it.

没有得到幼鸟期语言训练的鹩哥，学会一句话可能会很难。

Sometimes words will sound broken or mixed up, but with practice and from hearing the phrases repeated, the mynah learns to speak the words more clearly.

有时说出的话会有间断或混淆，但随着训练以及不断听重复的字句，鹩哥说出来的字句会更清晰。

"Hello" was the first phrase I began to work on when training Howard. That seems to be the easiest thing to get a bird to say. His first "Hello" was raspy and broken but quickly became clearer with practice. The next phrase he said was "Ah-Ah-Ah Mynah bird". It must have stayed in his little memory from hearing both his breeder and myself say it to him when he was still being hand fed. He was such a sweet little baby.

&hello&是我训练Howard的第一个词，这个词对我的鹩哥来说似乎异常容易，它的第一个&hello&显得含糊不清，但随着不断的练习很快就说清楚了，第二句它学的是&Ah-Ah-Ah Mynah bird&，当它在我的手上吃食时我就说给它听，并且有停顿以便他能留下记忆，这时的它是个多么可爱的小宝贝。

In search of shorebirds, I cross by crowded ferry from Hainan to Beihai, mainland China's southernmost port near the border with Vietnam. Aboard, a large box of passerines and mynah birds, heading for death in exquisite cages, keeps up a cheerful chorus while the rest of the passengers succumb to a dumb seasickness.

在找寻滨鸟的过程中，我乘坐拥挤的渡轮，从海南来到中国大陆最南段的港口，靠近越南边界的北海市，在船上，一大箱子的雀鸟和鹩哥，虽然正在精致的笼子里死去，却仍然欢叫着，剩下的鸟因为晕船而没有了声音。

Mynahs are able to imitate any human voice , and talk as clearly as any human .

鹩哥有能力模拟任何人的语音，并可以象人一样清晰的说话。

After observation for a period of time, Lady Chen realized finally that the hill myna was mechanically imitating the promises her husband made to his lover during his phoned conversation when Chen was not home. It is unexpected that walls have ears. Some key words were learned and mechanically imitated by the well-trained hill myna. When she adduced this evidence to the testimonies, her husband was surprised very much.

经过一段时间的观察，陈女士终于回过神来：这一定是她不在家时，丈夫与情人通电话时作出的&承诺&——不料隔墙有耳，一些关键词句被这只训练有素的鹩哥依葫芦画瓢地搬了出来，当陈女士将这些证词向丈夫提出来时，丈夫惊讶万分。
