Interesting. When you talk with apes is the conversation an actual representation of what the ape is thinking, or does it just learn how to respond without knowing what's going on? Not sure if my question was clear enough, I just mean do the apes think up "words" (bad way to put it, I know) for themselves, or merely go through the motions?
