Why Do We Talk to Animals Even If We Know They Don't Understand Us?

Why Do We Talk to Animals Even If We Know They Don't Understand Us?

If you live with an animal, or if you have someone living nearby, or if you just love animals and enjoy communicating with them, you must say "Hello" to a cat you see on the street, "How are you" to a dog, "Good morning" to a crow.

 

Although some animals, especially dogs, can be directed by commands, it is not possible to have a "meaningful conversation" with the animals. Even if we think that the animals we communicate with respond to us with their body language or the sounds they make, this is not the case. We are experiencing an imaginary conversation, like the dialogues we have in our minds, as in the account of Grape and Other Things.
